Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live from the Numerica Studio and brought to you by
Northern Quest Resort to Casino.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
It's the David Molly Show.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Oh, it's David Molly Show, but it's a special guest.
Can It's day I can remember, David Can. Do you
remember those guys? I do remember those way back. They've
got to be about one hundred right now.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Remember those guys that used to talk like this. I've
heard some of my stuff from way back. Yeah, those
were days.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Yeah, Molly's got the day off today.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
I agree with that. I hope. I don't even hope
she's hearing us. Hope.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
I think she's probably still. I think her plan was
to sleep in a little bit. Yeah, she's got a
little rest.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
She's got a big event tomorrow night.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
It's her big safety event, and then we all have
an event tonight tonight.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, so it's just.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
All stacked up and then and then we're giving away
a truck on Monday night, I know, talk about I
looked at my calendar and then I have on Sunday,
I'm going to a birthday party. So it's just bing
bing bing bing bing. Yeah, crazy busy stretch of time.
And you were here yesterday as well. I was here yesterday.
That was very nice. It was the it was very

(01:17):
organic as everything happened because Molly came in yesterday morning
before we even went on the air, and she said,
all right, here's the deal. I'll give you some money
if I can be off tomorrow. Oh that's a pretty
good deal for me. And it's like, well, you could
just be off.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
So that happened before we get on the air, and
then when you came in around eight, then it was like, well, hey,
Molly's not here, how about you come in so then
and then here you are.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
I see. I know. I have to say, this is
the first time I've come into the podcast because I
filled in a week or two or somewhere in there.
I have not driven in in the dark. It all right.
I mean the last time I came in, Hey it's
bright and early five point fifteen, but hey, it's it's

(02:02):
changing and I I can't believe, Dave, I drove down
you know how quiet it is at five fi. Yeah.
I was complaining about the red lights immediately. I mean,
I had forty years of it and one more day
and I'm complaining that I'm sitting there like yeah, ten

(02:23):
sec and you're waiting.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
And then there are times when you're waiting at a
red light and there is no other try it's like, sure,
can I just go?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Are we? Are we good people? I don't want to be.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
No.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
I always say go ihad responsibly. Okay.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
But the thing is that you know, even if you
did do that, you saved thirty seconds correct, about a minute.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Just enough to go up to the next one and
slow down. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
So what did you do after yesterday's show? You had
to be ready, ready for today.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I had to be ready for today. Yeah, I had yesterday.
I immediately went from here to the Department of Licensees.
Oh that's right, that's right, And I had all of
my correct paperwork this time. You know. The thing was,
they said my doctor sent me the letter, but it
was a photo copy of it, and they needed the

(03:18):
actual one that had the little uh press on the bottom. Whatever.
So I go there and I get my my brand
new placards. I know, it's it seemed like a small thing,
but well it's very important for you when you're anywhere.
It is. It is very good. You get you get

(03:38):
two of them for two vehicles. Uh, and it's every
five years and my So I pulled off my old
placard and I went in just in case they needed
to check the numbers. It is sun dried and cracked,
and I mean, it's been hanging in the window for
five years. When they give you the brand new one.
My other one was like blue, they went to a

(04:02):
dark blue. It's beautiful to look at it. It is.
Everybody can admire it, you know. Uh. And so I
get all my paperwork. I rolled back to the van,
and it did dawn on me, I thought, and this
reminded me of a Seinfeld where they were parking and
they they they said, screw it, we're doing disabled parking.

(04:22):
They came back and there was an angry mob. I
remember that angry mob. Well, it dawned on me when
I came back to my van that I had pulled
the placard out so somebody could stand there and say,
who's this dude in the red van parked right here?
Blah blah blah. I don't see a placard. I don't
see any markings whatsoever. And then I thought, I'm sure

(04:45):
they'd give me a break. I'm rolling up in a wheelchair.
So anyway, so how long are you in the actual paperwork.
Here's the placard go. I would say maybe five minutes,
maybe it was. It was pretty busy up there, maybe
one person in line, and yeah, that was very simple

(05:06):
and bing bang bang, and I'm on the board for
another five years. Okay, So that was my big that
was my big specialty yesterday and five minutes, yeah, just
five minutes, and it was uh. Trisha had gone out
with a friend for lunch. So she came back in
the afternoon and I said, I have something for you.

(05:27):
And when I handed it to her, her face being
as well, she goes, oh, we got a new one.
I can take a crappy old thing out of it, so,
you know, her a little a little fun there on
abashedly Dave, since I knew it was coming in this morning. Yeah,
I just took a power app. Sure, I said, I've
gotta got to take a power app in there.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
And then you had It's not it's not often in
your new world that you have to wake up at four.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
I know it is quite and I do that earlier
in the afternoon. Actually set my alarm on the usually,
you know, when I was like you before, Yes, it's
just on there and you do it in Yeah, so
setting it for four twenty four seemed just outrageous. That
did huh. But here's the deal. I knew you will

(06:21):
be out on assignment for the podcast last night, and
you've got stories on that, so I figured I should
do some work for the show. So I took a
hit for you, Dave. I decided to stay home last
night on the couch and watch football. You watched Hardball
and r Seahawks Ady got a walk off when if

(06:44):
they say I did not see it all, but I
checked in enough on the prime and they're on the road.
It's a short week. I do see a lot of
the ESPN bettings and everything I heard was short week.
They're on the road. It's a trap game. Nobody's gonna

(07:05):
blame them that they and they went down and got
that job done. Yeah, and it seemed comfortable, comfortable, bing.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
Bang, Arizona, bing Ban, and we get the ball back
and two plays and the dude he missed one earlier, right, Look,
this one looked right down the middle, then it flared
and stayed in and there you go.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
The clock said triple zeros and twenty three to twenty. Yeah,
there's a lot about that game that I'll talk about,
but because I saw the very start of it, and
then we went out to dinner and then to the
show last night.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
The sun like it hot, so it was.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
Halftime when we when the show started, and then at
intermission I checked and it was over, and it was like,
oh Jesus got closer?

Speaker 2 (07:58):
How did that get twenty three to two?

Speaker 3 (08:00):
They were, you know, it was like seventeen to six
or something, and it just and then, truth be told,
I watched some of the game last night, you know,
out recorded right right right, and then I watched the
rest of it this morning. Hey, so something, so I'm
I'm updated, very updated. I don't know what the chatter

(08:21):
was with the what they call the desert uniforms for
the Cardinals. They had like brown speckles all over there,
and it's supposed to be like, oh, that's deserty. It's like, no,
it looks like others, like mud splatter on your jerseys.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
It looked like a mud flop on a semi So
I think that's that was a fail. I can I
appreciate the try, but yeah, you want I mean if
those would have had like sparkles on them or something
to shimmer I.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Don't or or maybe bigger brown spots like the sand
like I think they were going for a desert look.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Oh sure it was just cactus and all. I don't know. Yeah, anyway,
interesting on that, so I uh, yeah, I was. I
was basically last night saying, well, we got overtime. Okay,
we're gonna boom in there you go. So that was nice.
I do what Maybe I'll talk about this a little later,
Tricia and I have discovered uh uh, maybe you've seen

(09:21):
the promos for the new Jason Bateman and Jude Law.
I've seen the promos. I'm frightened. I mean it's I
think you would really like it, just in a nutshell.
It's almost if you remember Adam Sandler and Precious Jams.
Yeah yeah, uh. Jude Law fine, upstanding, dressed in a

(09:41):
suit like always. Uh. His brother Jason Bateman, who looks
like he just crawled out of a dumpster, and he
is a degenerate gambler with a lot of problems. Oh boy.
They collectively own a restaurant. So that is in the backdrop.
But it's and this is a series, right series, and

(10:03):
it's called Black Rabbit Rabbit Okay, And so we watched
two or three, and that is right, and you're in.
You're totally and totally. I had to keep my eye
on Thursday night football on my iPad while I was
watching that for a little bit, a little bit of
the second quarter. But so anyway, that was my that

(10:24):
was my Thursday. It was and it was almost an
off day because we were out Wednesday night. I know
you were out last night and then Tomorrow night and
Saturday night and it's a busy stre Monday night. Sure.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah, yeah, I left here and then we uh, let's see,
I got a few things done around the house. My
plan was to get get outside again and you know,
take the dog for a walk or maybe moth the yard,
do something.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
But the the the Synski people.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Had come and they put down something and they said,
ef you can wait there, like a fertilized something kind
of like the early fall treatment or whatever. So the
the part about you know, mowing the yard, that was
off the board. Uh, And I thought, well, I know
it's gonna be a late night. So I did and

(11:17):
your powered app hey got it, you got you gotta
do what works. Yeah, and then then then I got moving.
Everything was great and then Nadine came over and then
we were off to in Dakata. It's a restaurant down
there in the Perry district.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
You're going after. Oh, is that the Italian one? No,
it's it's uh, it's Indian and Mexican. All right.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
It's kind of a weird combination. I love, I've heard
about it, but but I had never been there. I
think she may have been there once before, but I'm
not sure.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
So. Uh.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
And then and they also have like a Thursday street
fair thing going on in the Perry district, so parking
was crazy.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
So we had a premium driving down there. You know,
we finally get a place to park.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
We go in and you know, it's kind of a small,
uh you know, long skinny, you know, restaurant. And we
get there and they say, oh, did you guys want
to sit inside or outside?

Speaker 2 (12:17):
It was like, where's your outside? Like? What there?

Speaker 3 (12:20):
I don't even see where it could be right, it's
all the way at the end, and then the back
is like a really really nice outdoor like patio situation.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
So we said, well, we'll try the outside where you know,
tell us where it is. Oh, it's following us. So
we go back in and it's a perfect night. Last night,
it was just it was from you know what time
were we there maybe five thirty I guess or five
point fifteen I think, a reservation. So that was great,
and then we thought there was some heavy hitters coming

(12:54):
through there, some political leaders, and and then our friend Hudson,
she who she will be here in about an hour
or so, but she has someone in town from Minneapolis. Uh,
they're they're doing a story on Spokane. And then her boss,
so then they they came in. It's just like totally random.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
That's our city, big work.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
And the whole patio was full, and then when we
were leaving the inside of the restaurant was full too,
and it's like we were just happy that, you know,
spoken on a Thursday night, there things happening.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
We're a city on the move, we are and speaking
on the weather. I had the depth door open all
night last night. It's just like, well you couldn't tell
that it was beautiful. Yeah, it was a really nice,
just a great night.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
So then we we headed to the you know, well,
I still call it the Opera House, but for some
like it hot which is a best Broadway and she
has Nadine has season tickets and they're normally for Wednesday night.
Well she moved it because of our event Wednesday, Yes,
the one year. So we get there and we get

(14:08):
we got there kind of early, so that means that
means more wine for me.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Hey, hey, I had the wine.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
And then I'm kind of monitoring the Seahawk game and
I think it was was it seventeen to three and
a half room or something was like that. I felt
pretty just seemed comfortable and like okay, and knowing their defense,
I thought, you know, if they if they're up by
two touchdowns at halftime, we'll be fine. And then the

(14:35):
show was great, you know, two enthusiastic thumbs up.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
It's very different than the movie. Is it bigger?

Speaker 3 (14:43):
That is my only it's a different you know, casting
is different characters playing the you know, the main roles.
But still very fun. Quite a show. I think everybody
enjoyed all that.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
And that runs through Sunday.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Yes, okay, good good, And then the next show that
they have is like a special deal and it's I
think it's called Stereophonic or something something like that. But
it is the one of the most Tony Awards ever yeah,
for one year, and it's the story basically of Fleetwood

(15:23):
Mac doing rumors album.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
God yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
So it's kind of like, wow, they don't they don't
say Fleetwood Mac.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
But it but it is. It's kind of like that.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Mini series that we all watched the.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Oh yeah, that Riley Keyes.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
Who is Lisa Marie Presley's daughter, Elvis' granddaughter, that was.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
In the six Remember it was a girl's name and something.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
And I had read that book and then we all
watched the series and that was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
I'm guessing that this is similar to that.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
But that's it's only a two day run and I
think it's the fourteenth and fifteenth of October, so that's
that's coming up and so.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
And then so that's kind of a special thing. And
then yeah, they've got their you know, the whole season
lined out. Yeah, so wow good. So yeah, it was
so two enthus Yeah, it's fun.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
I mean, I think if you if you're you know,
if you like those shows, you're gonna love that. When
it was just you know, it's got all the interview
was funny, you know, it's it's you know, quite quite
the thing.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Very Americana and hey, just backtrack a second. What did
you have to eat? What's an all? What's an entree
like that? So that's so we got the what do
they call it rip and dip or something.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
It's like this bread you know, they're like chips, but
it's more of a bread thing. And this special cree
sauce icy, very good, very that was so great. And
then we got a steak and then the other was
enchiladas and we kind of.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Oh my mixed, I like that, but it was it
was really good. Everything very flavorful.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
The combination Mexican and Indian food, so you get a
lot of there's spices and then there's a lot of
the use of curry.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
A little crossover. Yeah, but yeah, I I'm always very
careful with the curry. Yeah I am. I'm not a
huge like big spice, but you have to be a
you know, i know, summer summer more than others.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
Yeah, this was and it was weird because the for
the dip, like it's a dipping sauce that you put
the bread in. You you you taste it and it's like, oh, okay,
that's nothing, and then all of a sudden, oh, oh,
there's the spice. So the kind of comes a little
bit late, but very good, right, very good the whole thing.
I think they got a good thing going. I don't

(18:04):
know how long they've been open, but I've heard that
restaurant referenced many times and that was my first time there.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Well, that will be on our our list, we or
our mainstay is South Perry Pizza. That's our Yeah, that's
a great one. But I know you got the tap
house over there, and I love all that stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
In fact, when we were leaving and again, beautiful night,
we've been sitting out on the patio, we're leaving, we're
walking up Perry and I can't remember what restaurant we
looked in, but they had big screen.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
TV and the Seahawks had just scored a touchdown.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
I was like, oh, we can watch through the window
and okay, everything's good.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
And then that was right about halftime, and then they.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
Had they actually they had started the second half before
the Some Like It Hot show started, So that's how
I knew that. You know, they were into the third
quarter and I thought, Okay, this game's over.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
I know.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
And then when I saw the final score, oh geez,
so last night. Then we get home, it's late. You know,
it's shows, shows late. And I was many many wines
in my body.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Emote your respect for you being here right now. Yes,
So I was powering through.

Speaker 3 (19:17):
But then I thought, okay, let me let me just
you know, see what happened with the Seahawks game. So
I'm kind of watching it, and I skipped toward.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
The the end.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
So I'm watching the it was like, it's the fourth
quarter with like four minutes to go in there, up
by two touchdowns. I know, well, man, if you really
were watching that in real time, you would think.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Or seven, I know.

Speaker 3 (19:40):
So then I watched the rest of it this morning
and one of the clips I got to play this
clip because I I did see it when I was
watching the game. It was the Seahawks receiver and the
and there was a penalty on him. It was Seahawks
actually score a touchdown, but it was called back for
a whole holding all right, right, And the Seahawk receiver

(20:03):
that was called for holding was not very happy about it.
And when the ref is, you know, making the announcement
and they've got their mics on and everything and it's live,
he's walking by the receiver and he just says a
string of bad words.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Did pick it up? Were well? Yeah, so where is
here it is?

Speaker 3 (20:23):
This is from last night with Al Michaels and Kirk
Herbstreet calling the action big.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Jackson Smith and Jigba, who didn't really need to make
the hold, was right.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
In front of the holding carrier. The care found the look.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
He did oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah beautiful. I think
they were thrown off. Hi, yeah, well, usually by the
time the ref gets out, they're kind of the players
have usually cooled down, y yeah, or they're in there huddle.

(21:04):
But man, yeah, he.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Just happened to be walking by and and the ref,
the ref's face is like I could just tell like
he was not happy.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Why bike bike this is my time?

Speaker 3 (21:19):
I don't know because I because it was on Amazon
and you can't record Amazon correct, So my my DVR
must have picked it up from the NFL network or something.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Oh so that's why I'm watching.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
So when I saw that they had no they it
was just totally dead. It wasn't even bleeped. It was
like there was nothing. The sound was just off for
that minute. So I think they cleaned it up. But
I think if if people saw it on Amazon, I
think they probably heard.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
I think live you know the B the b s. Yeah,
I do know. I mean, I guess for all night
workers and all that. You can't go on almost Amazon.
They have a replayed, but I'm certain it would be
muted on the If you want to go watch the
full game replay.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Here to Daisy Jones in the six Jones is the
how cute was she great?

Speaker 2 (22:19):
And that was that was great? Multiple Texters have that.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
And then everybody's checking in about the look on the
ref's face.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
Yes, I'm gonna have to check that out.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
Yeah, I think they they definitely cleaned.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
It up, but yeah, you could tell what the what
you can tell what the words were, and there was
a bunch of them. I'm sure the ref his face
is all over memes and everything like this is what
happens when Hey, one other real quick thing. Wait, maybe
we can talk about this later. But on the other channel,

(22:56):
your Seattle Man have clinched a buy in a number
two seed. Look at god what they do and just
very every twenty four years, every twenty four years. Yeah,
and since you're a number sky, Yeah, let's go back
to the last eighteen games. Day, last eighteen games. Okay,
first one Okay, they lost that, that's fine. Okay, then

(23:20):
they won ten in a row, then they lost one,
that's fine. Yeah, now they've won seven in a row.
They have won seventeen out of eighteen. That's that's the
way you go into the playoff. Seventeen out of twenty.
I guess they unbelievable. And it's the Dodgers for the weekend.
Who I believe clinched a playoff. I don't know about

(23:42):
their divisions, so.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Yeah, they have something to play for Seattle, I think,
doesn't that they can't be the one seed?

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Can know? Is there any scenario where they can be
the one? I do not believe, and I know there doesn't.
I don't believe they can fall and they're just let
every and I mean Boston and then the Yankees have
a lot to play for. It will be a fun weekend.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
My daughter's going to the Dodger Series, which is going
I think Saturday and Sunday very nice, or maybe it's
it's just Sunday, but it's a you know, last game
of the season and everything. But it's nice to be
in a situation where you know it's it'll be a
big game, of course, but it's like, hey, we're already

(24:26):
in let's rest our, guys, let's be ready to Yeah,
so now to enjoy with the with the bye, when
when would they play this here? Wednesday or Thursday?

Speaker 2 (24:39):
And I'm not sure, but here I had to look
it up myself. I'm I was out of the loop
last summer. I was not aware. There is no more
one game wild card for anybody. It's best of three
Mariners in Toronto will have a bye, so you have
best of three. So however that works out, okay, best

(25:01):
of five Mariners their first series. Then it'll be two
best of seven's for division okay, or championship in World series.
So it's got to be mid or Wednesday or Thursday
with them, Yeah, because those teams will be playing Monday.
I would think.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, And I would think baseball would be kind of like, well,
I don't know, but I know, like with football, you know,
you get the bye week, and it's like, oh, it's
so great that you got a bye week, right because
of you know, a lot of injuries and health and stuff.
But then there's also times when teams are just so

(25:40):
out of sync because they've you know, like the Chiefs
last year they had they had clinched the spot. So
then the last game of the season they're playing all
second string people. Then they have the bye, and then
they play later in that weekend. So it was like
two and a half weeks off, and so you're you're
kind of rusty about that. So I don't know about

(26:01):
how baseball as. If it's like, hey, we're off for
five or six days, I would think that's good, right,
you don't get too rusty, I.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Would think so. But then there's always you'll always hear
the guys and baseball is it's so dang long, and
it's yeah, I mean, you get a day off a
week basically it's every day. So you just you hope
they're engine I mean, their bodies have to feel great.
I would think you just hope they're mindset and all that. Hey,

(26:32):
we're we can still drain for quite a while, at
least a couple of weeks and hopefully longer. We do
have oh October fourth people, Okay, and here's the other thing.
This weekend, three more games can cal Rawley go from
fifty nine to sixty No, he's at six far sixty

(26:52):
to sixty one and break the American Right, Yeah, that's right,
he's I saw him. He had two the other night, right,
fifty nine sixties, so that'll be fun.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
The last time the Mariners won the American League West
Julio Rodriguez star player for this year's team.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Correct, he was eight months old? Was he? Eag Row
who is now retired. He was Rookie of the year.
I remember that. I got to see them a few
times that year in two thousand and one. That's the
one they won one hundred and sixteen games. I mean,
anybody that went to the game, of course they won. Yeah,
it was awesome. It was crazy. Each Row can't I

(27:31):
can't believe he was a rookie.

Speaker 3 (27:33):
The first Harry Potter film was the number one film
in the country. Wow, Shrek was in theaters. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
That means we were playing smash Mount records all over.
Oh yeah, two thousand and one.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
And then the iPod had not even been released yet.
And now the iPod is just you know, it's coming gone.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
We don't. I know, everything's on our phone integrated with
everything else. Yeah, it was.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
It's been a long time for them. That is a flashback.
Multiple people say that the Mariners could be a one seed,
could I.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
Guess if they sweep in Toronto. Wow, yeah, okay, I
was so happy we were locked at A two. I
didn't even do the math. I just said, hey, maybe.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
So I wonder what the I guess they would just
mean home field advantage if you.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Played any any team then, right, if any longer reason, Well,
if you're the one seed, yeah, you would have home
field for every uh every series? How about that?

Speaker 3 (28:41):
And that and a bad playoff baseball is very exciting.
So next week we'll have playoff baseball.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
I know, and even I as the baseball guy that
I mean, when it's a college and NFL's it's still
backdroppish for me. And you know it's by watching all
the Mariners it is. Oh yeah, and it's fun to
have a baseball only night. But man, there's a lot
of football out there.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Well the baseball will be a lot of baseball on
Tuesdays and Wednesdays, yes.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
And Fridays. That's where they kind of rege them in there.
And I do not blame MLB for trying to trying
to carve out a Niche keep hope alive, keep baking
live a few games. That's pretty cool, So very very
fun stuff. Coming on Seahawks.

Speaker 2 (32:03):

Klai or both or possibly booked.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
Well that it would be a good, fun and busy morning,
all the stuff look forward to.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Now we get to the news that we have a
full on situation in Georgia.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
This guy and I don't know.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
The logic behind this stealing manhole covers and these are
the you know traditional you think the size of a manhole,
you know, it's the big ones and the way right,
how many do you think he stole? Twelve ninety one?

(32:52):
There's that word, Come on in Georgia. They just caught
him and it actually it was ninety one in the
past month alone, So who knows how many he had
taken before that, and obviously there you know, it's an
issue because you know, people can you know, run by,

(33:14):
fall in pets, small kids, I mean.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
All that stuff. At the least you're bending a tire
ram or something.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
Yep, the guy's name is Kaylin Watley. In his mugshot,
he's wearing a shirt that says free hugs.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
So came.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
He was caught on home surveillance cameras and the covers
were all so heavy that he needed someone else to
help him carry them, and he put them in the
trunk of his car.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
It's a twenty tw Nissan Kick.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
Neighbors, of course, were worried about joggers that could actually
fall in, especially you know with darkness settling in earlier
and Larry joggers out in the dark and you've fallen
him in hole. Sounds funny, but that's it could be.
You know, it could be deadly terrible. There's one thought
that he was grabbing these manhole covers to sell to

(34:10):
scrap yards, but there's not a whole lot of money
in that. It costs about two hundred dollars to replace
these for scrap metal.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
He would get only a fraction of that, right.

Speaker 3 (34:22):
So anyway, he's been charged with theft of government property
and investigators are looking at other charges.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
Yeah, and wouldn't that be clearly imprinted as city or
state property or trends? I mean, wouldn't the scrap metal
people say? Now come on now? Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Yeah, he was also stealing the storm drain.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Oh the great, yes, and so who does that? And
I thought you were going to say, the guy owned
a big old flatbed pickup or something. He's putting those
in the trunk of his car. You can't put that
many in there.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
You're and you're probably not getting very good gas mileage
the way in your car, now.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
Dragon bottom, Well there you go. Don't do that kid.
That's not in our town but in Georgia. And then
and they caught him, so that's good, good, good. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
The Merriam Webster dictionary people have added some more terms
to their to the dictionary.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
There's like five thousand different ones. New ones. Wow, a
couple of a couple of the new ones.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Beast mode always the beast mode is marshawn Lynch you know,
and everything. Well, according to them, they define it as
an extremely aggressive or energetic style or manner that someone
adopts temporarily to overpower an opponent in a fight or competition.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
That sounds exactly, but I think doesn't Marshawn just get
the credit for that though, I mean the beast mode. Yeah, yeah,
I mentioned that I was bingeing brooklyn ninety nine the
other night. They said, Hey, somebody witnessed an accident. Bring
him in. It was marsha on Lynch, But I though

(36:16):
really kidding me, yeah, and he was pretty funny. They
just so they're asking him about the accident, and then
it goes he starts talking. Then it says twelve minutes later,
thirty nine minutes, still talking, fifteen minutes later, and the
whole time he's talking about the food he likes, de
plus and then I guess that's the only sauces I like.

(36:36):
And then that was it? All right? So this is
newer was no, it was like, I'm on like season four.
It was probably eight years ago on now.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
So they're probably making fun of the fact that he
wouldn't answer reporters question all the year, so I don't
get fine, and then then.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
He's all fun I'm sure he's chatting so much all
during that so anyway, best mode had a little little
screen time.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well, I think for the for the for the dictionary
people not to mention Marshawn Lynch in the definition of
beast mode. I think that's that's not right. I mean
it is, it is. It was his term, that was
his thing. He's got to at least have parentheses, you know.
First first became a.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Deal when other phrases in terms dad bought. We've heard
that one before. Oh yeah, sure, a physique regarded as
typical of an average father, especially one that is slightly
overweight and not extremely muscular. Hey, that's a dad phone,
you more softer. Here's one I think we would easy easy,

(37:41):
easily identify. Dumb phone. Oh yeah, a non smartphone. Yeah,
it's a dumb phone like an old flipper.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, a cell phone that doesn't have a whole lot
of advanced software features.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Ah, so you can't look at emails. So it's a
dumb phone. There you go. Here's another one. I think
we've used this hard pass. Oh yeah, that's a hard pass. Yeah,
it's just a big no.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
Right, Yeah, one of those their official you know definition,
A firm refusal or rejection of something such as an offer.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Ah, Hey, you wanna you wanna go to go to
the store. That's a hard no, yeah, exactly hard. Pass again.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Love language it's another one. Oh, we all kind of
know that, we all learn your love language.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Whatever that is about side eye side eye? Is that
just being really cautious keep your side eye.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
It's more of the disapproval, Oh, sidelong glance or gaze,
especially when expressing scorn, rise, suspicion, disapproval, or veiled curiosity.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
Ah, given the side eye side eye, sometimes I call that. Wow, geez,
you sure got the stare down. Yeah, stair down. Sometimes
the stairdown can be a little different. But asida, yeah,
you're gonna look look for those new terms. I don't
know if you heard it or not.

Speaker 3 (39:15):
We were talking the other day about the friendliest cities
in America anyway, that there was a big list on that. Well,
now now we have the least friendly cities in America
least Okay, and this is hard to hard to figure
because you'd think, oh, the Midwest, they're always very nice people.
Oh yeah, they say the least friendly city in all

(39:36):
of America is Wichita, Kansas.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
I would never count. I wouldn't even be close to Kansas, Wichita.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
San Bernardino, California. All right, New Orleans, well the least friendly.
Why you could probably find some non friendly sections, but
I thought they rolled out the red carpet. Yeah. Detroit,
Detroit number four. I told my Detroit stories and you know, yeah,
my experiences in Detroit have been very nice, from hotels

(40:10):
to airports, and you know, I haven't really you know,
gone in the inner city of Detroit.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
But right, and I love the you know, the new
sports energy there and all that kind of stuff. Yeah,
they're Tigers are in the playoffs and the Lions are
on the rise. Yeah, they're different, they roar, they do.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
Other least friendly teams Los Angeles, Sacramento, Atlanta and Seattle,
Washington non friendly.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
Yeah, I didn't get that one. Yeah, and I like,
I know we've been to Atlanta or in the good
parts usually that is a fun city. But I guess,
you know, every city has its place. Oh you know,
I'll see this as a as a wheelchair bound person.
Oh yeah, Seattle is I mean, I know, it's a

(41:04):
big city and it's got newer sections, but it is
the most It's very accessible, and I've been in areas
where people are just bending over backwards. They do in
Spokane as well. But I just you notice that you
go to a big city and you just think, Okay,
you're you're going to get lost in the shuffle. But no,

(41:24):
it's it's good on that front. Well that's good. Yeah, yeah,
I like that.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
So and then even just like, uh, well, I think,
like you know, first sporting events or stadiums, and I
mean that's when I always think about you, and it's
like that would can handle all the stuff.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
I will tell you this. And I've not been to
a lodge of a lot of Major League parks, but
T mobile down in San Diego. When we're there, we're
walking up and somebody usually picks us off of the
street and let's just cut wine. And I mean MLV

(42:03):
has been the greatest i mean accessibility ever, really nice.
And in the Seahawks game, I want to same thing.
So I've had a really good experience for the big ones.
Some others are scattered. Love other stories. Yeah I think
I heard one of them. Yeah. Mostly it's been good. Yeah,

(42:26):
you just have to adapt to it.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
Our last story here, this is just just good information.
We present to you phrases that you can use to
shut down somebody that gives you unsolicited advice.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
We've all been in that.

Speaker 3 (42:41):
Situation before, where it's like somebody will they think they
know your situation better. Sure, they want to make sure
that you know and the discovered you don't. You just
let you know. Let's end this. But they don't. They don't,
they don't pick up on that.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
Right.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Here are the ways, discrete ways that you can handle that. Okay,
you say to them, thanks for sharing, I'll consider it.
It politely acknowledges their input without locking yourself into doing anything.

Speaker 2 (43:12):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
Yeah, another phrase you could use is that's a useful
that's a useful view.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
I prefer to handle it this way.

Speaker 3 (43:22):
This shows that you're listening to their perspective while keeping
the choice of how you act.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
In your own hands. Right, that's very diplomatic. Say it
that way. I like this one.

Speaker 3 (43:34):
I appreciate your input. I already have a plan for
now and how I'll move forward.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
Yes, but I'm acknowledging and I'm giving you a hard pass.
You're not part of this appreciated moving forward.

Speaker 3 (43:49):
And then the last one is I hear you. If
I need more guidance, I'll reach out again. You're shutting
them down.

Speaker 2 (43:57):
But I hear you as I use that a lot.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
Hey, I hear you on that the that phrase validates
their effort but also prevents further unsolicited input.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
I'm sure you seek it out. It's kind of like
all reach out if I have any more questions. AnyWho. Yeah,
sometimes you have to shut it down.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
Yeah, and other times you just you're just like, well,
I'm I know in my heart what I'm doing, and
they they feel like they just want to keep keep
talking and it's right, nothing is going to change. And
then there's other times when you you can't tell them

(44:41):
all of the parts of things, you know, for different reasons.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
Because things kind of have to come together. Yeah, any totally, totally.
I think we solved a few problems there. Hey, very good.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
We still have h We'll get to the entertainment news
here and just but there's new movies out today, so
that'll be one of the things that we get to
and then I'll be in a very guest heavy day today.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Good good. We've got We've got Ken, We've got you.
I'm here for the day. We got another Ken, all right,
a firefighter? Can we got a Sam or a Kali?
We got a Kate Hudson. No, I like it because
those TV people are dressed up so they always look
Oh yeah they do, and they got the info.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
So we'll get to all that more as we continue on.
If you want to play the showdown, make sure you
check in with us via the text line the Dutch
pros text line let us know, and then Ken has
questions ready to go.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
Including a special five dollars question yes sir ree and
speaking of a dumb phone. Molly sent me a text
last night and said, Hey, I'm shooting you the questions,
including the five dollars question blah blah bom, and I
sent back. I said hey, thank you, and then I
said feel better. And then I sent a little cup

(46:01):
of soup emoji to her. Oh, and it was steam
coming off. But then I thought, well, I'm the only
guy that has an android in Spokane. It's probably gonna
show up as a question mark on hers. I didn't
even know if she had the same emotion. The emoji
things don't work for well, sometimes they don't, but just
in case, I said, oh, by the way, that that

(46:23):
was some chicken noodle soup, and then she said, lol.

Speaker 3 (46:27):
I've never seen the I've never seen the chicken noodle
soup emoji or the soup.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
It said soup, but then it almost looked like a
cast role. And that's the last thing you want when
you're not feeling good. Soup, yes, casserolemos. So we are
good to go on the showdown later.

Speaker 3 (46:43):
Yeah, all right, if you want to play check in
with us via the text line, I will take a
break to Dave and Molly Show continues Today, it's Dave

People were checking in earlier this morning and they said, hey,

it was started that way. That was uh, I think

(47:23):
we faded out of that and what maybe two thousand, No,
it was it was later than that. I think it
was was then old Oneish show.

Speaker 7 (47:36):
Yeah, and then there was Breakfast Boys and Molly that

I know that we started together like in September, September
of ninety two, right, yeah, so that we are thirty

(48:13):
three years. Thirty three that's a long time, Dave, that's crazy.
I know that is a long time. You know what,
I might even have that on my calendar. Oh I do, Dave,
you could put this on your calendar. September eighth, nineteen
ninety two was the first time our two voices blended

(48:35):
on the same show wo on purpose. Yeah, and that
I remember it was. It was the day after Labor Day. Yeah,
it was. I remember coming out of that that weekend
and that was the reset. Yeah. I was like, well,
let's just see how this goes. And then it did.
I thought it went pretty well. It did. Yeah, I

(48:57):
went very well on a couple of different stations bound
back and then back and forth. There's several different well,
a couple of different buildings. For sure. I run into
people all the time. Even yesterday.

Speaker 3 (49:11):
We parked when we went to the show last night,
we parked at the Davenport Grand.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
And that's perfect place. Yes, it was.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
You know, it's like two spots and there was a
woman in the elevator when we walked in, and with
no context, like she didn't say oh, hi, Dave or
anything like that. She just said, I thought it was
terrible what they did to you guys. I said, oh, oh, yes, well, yeah, yeah,
it was you know. And and then I said, well,
you know, we have the new show now, and she says, oh, yes,

(49:42):
I didn't get to hear it today, but but she
has heard it. I missed the anniversary show, I think,
is what she said. And I said, well, it's kind
of like anniversary week. We're kind of you know, kind
of there's all kinds of things. We had the big
event at the at mary Hill. I said, but it
wasn't like like a whole show of the anniversary stuff.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
Yeah, just kind of hang out and have fun in that.
That sounds exactly. And I've mentioned several times my favorite
lab gal. Every time I go in for lab she
always says she usually had just a you know, hey,
how are you doing, and then just a boom, yeah,
I'm still not happy about that whole thing. So it's

(50:25):
like cry, It's like great, I love it.

Speaker 3 (50:28):
It's nice that people will, you know, they they're acknowledging
it and yeah stuff, so it's still in reference and
do what you do. And it comes from all different
you know, genders, age groups.

Speaker 2 (50:42):
Yea, there, I know. It is surprising. It is surprising.
I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, my wife went
in to get her refills at the pharmacy and the
pharmacist said, yeah, I I've been list means since I
was the seventh grader. Like, come on, man, the guy's pharmacy.

(51:05):
Now it's junior high. Yeah, so it's been a while. Yeah,
some eras.

Speaker 3 (51:11):
And we were talking earlier about you know, the Mariners
won their division for the first time in twenty four years.
And then you look at that, Okay, these are things
that were happening twenty four years ago. Oh, you go
back thirty three years, there was a whole bunch of
different things.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Oh, unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
You know, there was no real Internet, there's not I
mean there was an Internet, of course, but it was
like no one you know, most people were not on it,
didn't even know what it was.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
It was like a novelty look up and information thing
at that point.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
And then you think about all the changes that have
happened just in town from when we started, and we're
still here.

Speaker 2 (51:50):
We're still here. We're still here, you know. And I
noticed driving downtown, which of course you do every morning,
and I get to do now and then uh, since uh,
since we got fired from the old show, all the
downtown streets that I used to drive on are beautiful.
Now there was a stretch and every time I tell

(52:11):
Trish when we go under the bridge by river Front
Park there, I said, this is the stretch where the
coffee would literally jump out of my cup potholes and
now that's like glass going through there by the new
stadium and all this stuff down there. There's Yeah, there's
a lot of road construction going on. I think they're

(52:32):
just trying to get it all done before a lot
of one lane where you got to watch out.

Speaker 3 (52:38):
I've mentioned this before, but I I try to take
a different route in every morning, you know, so it's
on the same all the time.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
And a few of my different routes include me coming
straight down Maple and you come down to Maple, you know,
it's four lanes.

Speaker 2 (52:55):
And then it's two right, and then they've got.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
A second of it barricaded off, so then it right,
it goes into one and they got cones laid out
and so but there's some there's some bumpy stretches there.

Speaker 2 (53:09):
Bumpy. The other day when I went to the Iclinic,
which was kind of right down by Sacred Heart, and
I'm driving out of there, my eyes are dilated and
I don't have sub class. It was it was like
I was on the sun and then I turned made
a little turn. Usually go up Grand or I love
to go up Rockwood. I turned and that whole section

(53:32):
is just blocked off. It's like, uh, right by Sacred
which I will say, I don't know why the worst
road in America is right in front of Sacred Heart Hospital,
but I'm glad that it is getting that is getting
all smoothed out. But yeah, they're just got to watch
for the signs and proceed.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
Uh. Tammy from Lewiston says that September eighth, Yeah, was
her son's birthday.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
So he was born on that day. As we are
doing our first show together. That is that's a good benchmark.
Can say, however old that kid is, that's that's when
we started. Yeah, I like that. Hey Lewiston, Idaho, that
was my Hey. That was the big city to go
to for us palm Uray Pirates Day Lewiston. How far

(54:26):
is pam Uray from Lewison? Thirty miles? Oh? Yeah, so
you I mean you could either go to Walla, Walla
that's an hour or Lewiston thirty miles. So hey, when
it was the weekend, he went to a movie. Oh,
you went to the big city. If you wanted to
go to find a McDonald's, you had to go to Lewiston.
That's what you did. Yeah, and we did. Oh how

(54:49):
we did.

Speaker 3 (54:49):
I've spent a lot of time in McDonald's when I
was a kid. That was that was the time. I
remember this was in San Jose. That the first time
being like independent and I would walk with a friend.
We had to have been nine or ten years old.
I can't believe my parents let us do this, but
we would walk to a McDonald's. Ah, and that was

(55:12):
that was a big thing. And it was just the
two of Usten. It was me and my friend and
you know, I think we if we had a dollar,
you know, back then, you could buy you know, hamburger fries,
could drink and you could.

Speaker 2 (55:24):
You know, hang out there. And I think my very
very first trip to McDonald's. We moved down to the
Boise area and they had one early seventies hamburger forty
nine cents still in my brain, and I'm sure there
was a fry in a in a coke or a
root bearer, and that was the kid Meal. I think

(55:46):
they called him before the Happy Meal. I don't know.
That was a pretty good deal.

Speaker 3 (55:50):
Yeah, and then I remember going to It must have
been for the seventy two Olympics because McDonald's.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
Had those Olympic cars.

Speaker 3 (56:00):
It's like anytime you bought something in McDonald's, you got
an Olympic event run. If if team USA won that
event was or if a American won that event, you
got either a burger or a big Mac. And then
if it was bronze, you got fries. And then if

(56:20):
it was or if a bronze or if it was silver,
you got fries. Bronze you got to drink, right, So
I remember those until we collect all these cards and
we were going to McDonald's for free.

Speaker 2 (56:32):
Yeah a lot of so.

Speaker 3 (56:33):
Yeah, that was ten and we were walking to McDonald I.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
Remember they did that. I think it might have been
the seventy six Olympics. I remember the seventy two, I believe,
not mistaken, Leon Spinks won me a big Mac. Did
Leon win a gold? Or is broad think they both?
I think they both a med boxing one of them
won me a big Mac because I remember having that card,

(56:58):
going oh.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
Yeah, and you kind of knew this, you know, obviously
way before internet and everything. But there was always chatter like, oh,
we're really good. Yeah, our boxing team is good.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
We were always good, you know, track and field, pretty
good basketball.

Speaker 3 (57:14):
Yeah, although seventy two we didn't win the gold correct controversy,
but no way back.

Speaker 2 (57:20):
But another one.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
Carla on the text line, Carla listed number eleven. September eighth,
nineteen eighty two was her daughter's second birthday. Look at
all the people that are born on September, there's nine eight.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
And we were. We were radio born on that day.
We will you know you you had been with.

Speaker 3 (57:37):
The station and then I was with the station and
left and left came back.

Speaker 2 (57:41):
It was kind of a renewal of like just a
different mix.

Speaker 3 (57:45):
Yeah, but I was together. I know that was September eighth. Yeah,
at a long strange trip.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
It's I wonder what the first song you played at
six am that that morning was that. I don't remember,
I know, nor do we could. Probably if we could
ever biggest hits of ninety two, it was probably a
queen's rich rocker or something like that. Speaking of big hits,
look at her, she's here. Hey, Kate Hudson. Hi are you?

(58:14):
The studio got brighter and prettier. Yes, have you you guys?
Have have you been on when Kin's been here? I
think we've been or maybe one you coming me going that? Yeah,
all right on a Friday. Sure.

Speaker 8 (58:31):
How's retirement?

Speaker 2 (58:32):
It is great? Semi retirement, semi it's a very busy
stretch with all the fun side stuff going on. Do
you know what is his side? Jump? Is I work
for a funeral home? Oh? Yes, I do. I know
I get the same lisk how how in the world? No,

(58:54):
I am a I work for Holy Cross holding Cross
Cross and I'm a funeral service assistant.

Speaker 8 (59:04):
So you know what, that's an important job.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
And I grew up my dad was a minister. I
just was always so I am just the greeter. I
give out the nice little folder you can put your
cards here, and the restrooms are down here, see and
yeah that see them very calm?

Speaker 8 (59:23):
Yes, I love this, Yes, that is an important job.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
And in other words, as I've told David Molly, I
get paid to go to church a pretty good deal.

Speaker 8 (59:35):
Yeah that's right.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
It was like, you know, a couple of times a month. Yeah,
let's make that in.

Speaker 3 (59:40):
So we were reflecting on you know, the first show
that we did together was September eighth, nineteen ninety two.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
Wow Where were you in ninety two?

Speaker 9 (59:52):
I was a senior at Seldantna High School in Suldana, Alaska.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
Whow?

Speaker 9 (59:58):
And I was making the choice at that time, time
do you go to Gonzaga University? And that's what brought
me here?

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
And did you know much about Spokane?

Speaker 9 (01:00:07):
I knew nothing really and back then I had a
single parent, so we didn't have any money. Like college
tours were not a thing, right, So I just showed
up for fresh orientation in August and thought. I remember thinking,
I hope I like it here because I'm stuck here
for four years.

Speaker 8 (01:00:23):
And I loved it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
Yeah. How big is is it? Salt Ott?

Speaker 9 (01:00:29):
Yeah? I think there's about four thousand people there.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
So did you feel like a tiny little fish in
a big pond down here? Like, oh my.

Speaker 8 (01:00:36):
Gosh, I loved it?

Speaker 9 (01:00:38):
Well, good it just That's what I love about Spokane
and why I have stayed is because it has everything
I need. But it's not over It doesn't feel overwhelming.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
Yeah, it's not so natural, right, but it's so what
what what took you to Gonzaga because they were not
really on the map. That was way before the Big basket. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:59):
Now everybody in America knows about Gonzaga brand name.

Speaker 9 (01:01:04):
Now, yeah, you know I had. You know, when you
take your SATs and then you start getting inundated with
college brochures and they send you stuff, and Gonzaga sent
something and I thought, Gonziga, what is this? And I
threw it away and I came home from school the
next day my mom had pulled it out of the
trash and put it on my pillow and said, this

(01:01:26):
sounds like a really great school.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (01:01:28):
And they sent a recruiter up and so I thought, oh,
I'll skip class so I can not go to class.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
Yeah, go to the deal.

Speaker 9 (01:01:36):
I didn't really care about what they were going to
talk about. I just thought, oh, this is a free
pass out of class.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
Kind of like a job parotype deal. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:01:42):
And then they started talking this recruiter about the city
and all the things to do in the school, and
I thought, well, this sounds fun.

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
Had you ever been to Spokane before?

Speaker 8 (01:01:52):
No? Wow, Nope, new.

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
City, new school, and you're what eighteen years old? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:01:59):
Jeez, my good night unseen and I liked I liked
it because I stayed.

Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
And now you.

Speaker 3 (01:02:06):
Are a cheerleader for Spokane. I mean, you're bringing people in.
I was telling Ken earlier. We ran into you last
night doing your work.

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
I know.

Speaker 8 (01:02:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:02:14):
I had a journalist with me, Todd Walker. Uh, he
is fantastic. And he the first thing he said after
he got recognized by someone at the airport because he
was on TV in Minneapolis he did news, he said,
your city is so clean. I love it here, and

(01:02:36):
so I thought, I love to hear these things doors.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
Yeah, I know, that's awesome.

Speaker 8 (01:02:41):
You always worry, you know sometimes we get a bad rap.

Speaker 2 (01:02:44):
Well sure, and you know, when you live here, we
know the good and bad, but there's so much more good.
I know.

Speaker 9 (01:02:51):
It's fun for me to see the city through the
eyes of someone who's never been here. So a lot
of times, you know, you walk into the park and
they see the falls and their eyes get big and
they are just blown away.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
They don't take it for granted now, and that park
is just a yam and the river of course.

Speaker 8 (01:03:10):
Yep, we ran that. We rode the sky ride yesterday and.

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
What a perfect day for that it was.

Speaker 8 (01:03:16):
Except the smoke kind of rolled in. It was beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
I didn't notice that until late in the afternoon when
we you know, we sat outside and the hey, what
did you guys order last night?

Speaker 9 (01:03:27):
We ordered a bunch of plates and shared them. So
we got the tiketos, which I loved. We got the
RiPP and dip.

Speaker 8 (01:03:34):
Yes, that stuff was good.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
It was really good.

Speaker 3 (01:03:37):
With the sauce, yeah, you dipped. We even we even
got more chips for the sauce. It was really good.

Speaker 9 (01:03:46):
We got the three amigos, the the cheese, sauk, and
the salsa.

Speaker 8 (01:03:52):
Oh, that's also good. We got something.

Speaker 9 (01:03:56):
Oh, we got the the curried cauliflower, which was very spicy.

Speaker 8 (01:04:01):
I got a little sweaty eating that.

Speaker 2 (01:04:04):
So yeah, shut the place down. How How long were
you guys there?

Speaker 8 (01:04:07):
I think we left at seven forty five, so yeah,
you were there a long time. Yea, we raged, oh
rage how.

Speaker 3 (01:04:14):
Many people were still on the patio because when I
when we left, it was like there was hopping and
even the you know, walking through the restaurant to leave,
it was very busy.

Speaker 8 (01:04:25):
That warms my heart.

Speaker 9 (01:04:27):
I think it was us And there was another table outside,
but there were tables full on the inside, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
And then did you guys do anything after? Was that?

Speaker 8 (01:04:35):
That was the he flew in yesterday.

Speaker 9 (01:04:37):
So I always feel bad for these journalists, especially when
they're coming from the other side of the country.

Speaker 8 (01:04:43):
So we called it a night.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
Yeah, he's body clock times.

Speaker 8 (01:04:47):
Yeah he was.

Speaker 9 (01:04:47):
I'm sure he was close. Yeah, And you know when
you fly, you're up at three am and getting to
the airports. He can stand at security for eight hours.

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
And so is he here all weekend?

Speaker 8 (01:04:59):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Heyah, going to events?

Speaker 9 (01:05:01):
I'm sure as soon as I leave here, we're going
to go ziplining at my common excited about that, and
then we're I flew him in specifically for the Pacific
Northwest Food and Wine Festival.

Speaker 2 (01:05:16):
Right that I've heard about, So.

Speaker 9 (01:05:17):
We're gonna it's all sold out, otherwise I would be
plugging it. But all the events are sold out, and
tonight is the grand Tasting at the Davenport Grand so yeah,
it should be fun. Wow, we're going to do that,
and then tomorrow he is booked solid all day at
the Davenport. He's doing all of the events, all of
the food and wine fest events, which include yoga on

(01:05:39):
the rooftop. He's getting a facial down in the spa,
all sorts of stuff, and then there's the big six
course dinner tomorrow night that will be in.

Speaker 3 (01:05:48):
So now he and then he he'll ride a piece
on his adventures.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
And where will we see that?

Speaker 9 (01:05:55):
I don't know's the that's the sixty million dollar question
or whatever, sixty four million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
But he goes back and brings all of Minnesota to Spokane.

Speaker 9 (01:06:06):
Exactly because we do have a direct flight from Minnesota Spokane,
so that's one of our direct flight markets that we
like to target. But he'll get his story sold somewhere.
It'll show up. But yeah, he writes for Amtrak magazines,
all sorts of lifestyle magazines in Minneapolis, so it'll show

(01:06:27):
up somewhere. But yeah, that's the way it works now
in this world. There aren't really dedicated newsrooms anymore. Everyone's freelance. Yeah,
So they come and they low things and then it's
up to them to sell the stories to contract. Yeah,
so it's yeah, that's the pressure that I would not
want if I were a writer, thinking, oh my gosh,

(01:06:47):
what if I can't get anyone to pick up the story?
And now I've just had this free trip to a
city where they're hosting me and they're paying for things,
and like, I got to make good on my.

Speaker 3 (01:06:56):
Well, and it's it's kind of two different parts of
your brain too. You've got to be creative and you've
got to write the stuff, and then you've got to
become a salesperson to sell your work exactly.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:07:08):
So, but he also does he's a broadcast journalist as well,
so he worked at the Fox station in Minneapolis, so
he'll probably he does things like I do, where he
goes on and talks about stuff going on and cool
things he's seen and travel stuff. So he'll talk about
us over in Minneapolis.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
Yeah, we chatter about Spokane city on the rise.

Speaker 8 (01:07:30):
We are a city on the right move.

Speaker 2 (01:07:33):
Yeah, YEAHO is the city on the on the rise.
There is the city on the move move.

Speaker 3 (01:07:39):
Well we Molly keeps trying to push this Pasco, which
you know, I like Fasco.

Speaker 8 (01:07:46):
I think it's a city on the ride.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
I've lived here for forty years. I still don't know
which city I'm in when I go down. I'm just
on a bridge somewhere, going on the right road. Okay,
there you go.

Speaker 8 (01:08:00):
Well, stop in Pasco because it's lovely.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
Yeah. I always stopped for the mercantile, you know. Oh yeah, yeah, god, fantastic.
It's always that's always a must.

Speaker 8 (01:08:12):
I have not stopped there ever, so, oh.

Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
My god, that is almost a crime.

Speaker 8 (01:08:18):
If ever guess that.

Speaker 2 (01:08:22):
My wife goes the wall of Wall all the time.
And on the way back, the best text ever is
I've got dinner and on.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
The way I love it. Their sauces are great, all
fresh produce, and you.

Speaker 9 (01:08:34):
Know, okay, it's kind of fast time i'm there.

Speaker 8 (01:08:37):
Maybe we take a road trip.

Speaker 2 (01:08:38):
It's almost like a fair they've got that's going on.
I don't know what all goes on there. Yeah, they've
got a pretty good business going to. What's happening in
our town this weekend a lot?

Speaker 9 (01:08:49):
Yeah, the Fall Festival of Homes is going on this weekend.
That's where you can go tour like all the fancy homes,
see all the things that you'll never have.

Speaker 8 (01:09:00):
That's how I.

Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
Dream home is it is it a neighborhood or.

Speaker 9 (01:09:05):
Is it it's scattered all over Yeah, so I have
to check out the website.

Speaker 2 (01:09:09):
To see they're going specific area.

Speaker 9 (01:09:12):
And I think the price ranges from like four hundred
thousand dollars homes to three million dollar.

Speaker 2 (01:09:18):
Homes, you know when you have a point in there.

Speaker 9 (01:09:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so you choose. But it's fun to
look like looking at homes. Sure, we also have some
like it hot.

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
Did you see it? Yes? Last night? Yes, sir. It
was fun. Yeah, it was very fun.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
And I didn't I saw the movie, you know, like
in film's class, probably high school or college, I can't remember.
And maybe one other time, and it's a it's a
fun movie too. This it was a different kind of
take on that, but it still worked. It was funny,
it was charming.

Speaker 9 (01:09:52):
There were some funny lines. Yeah, and I loved all
the tap dancing.

Speaker 3 (01:09:56):
Yeah, my mom was a dance teacher.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
I've you know, hearing the clicking of the heels again,
it was like, no, I remember memories. So it was
very fun. Yeah, and a and a happy crowd.

Speaker 8 (01:10:14):
Did you ever tap dance?

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
No? No, but too late.

Speaker 3 (01:10:18):
My mom would always she would always say, you know,
the ballet will really help you with sports, and I was,
you know, it's it's your mom and it's ballet, and
it's like, no, I'm not doing that. And then as
I got older, like high school of junior senior year,
some of the football players on my team were coming
to my house for that. Then after I had left,

(01:10:41):
I had moved here to go to school, and I
would go back in the summers and everything, and there
were always that was a thing that kind of grew
guys doing ballet, not to be in the ballet world,
but to help them with sports.

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
It was a really big thing for once. And yeah,
just all that and then you see yeah, NFL players
that are doing that, and it's like, my goodness.

Speaker 9 (01:11:05):
It's impressive vallerinas. Yeah, because you know, taking bar classes.
I just think, wow, how new ballerinas do this, Like
we're using tiny little muscles that.

Speaker 2 (01:11:15):
Use might know. So yeah, but there were always times.

Speaker 3 (01:11:19):
I've told the story when I the first time I
saw grease and I got into trouble because I was,
you know, I just you know, got my license and
I'm driving. I had friends in the back seat and
they had to move all of the ballet shoes that
were in the back seat of the It was my
mom's car. I didn't have a car, so, you know,

(01:11:40):
and so we're going to that and then I I
was it was in the it was the Vancouver Mall theaters,
and you know how malls are. It's kind of like
the Valley Mall where there's like roads that are around
the mall and parking lot.

Speaker 2 (01:11:54):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:11:55):
I'm a new driver. I got all my friends in
the back and we're you know, being obnoxious kids. And
I didn't really partake in the road rules. I'm like
going in and out and just you know, are you cross?
And I got pulled over and it was not a cop.
It was like a mall security person. And I was

(01:12:17):
just terrified. And the guy was like, you know, being
mister tough guy and everything, and I'm so rattled. I'm
so nervous, you know. The guy's yelling at me basically,
and then when he leaves, and I'm like scared, you know.
I got my hands at ten and two and I
was like, I just want to get out of here.

Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
And then all my friends are like that guy was nothing,
he can't do anything to you. Come on, don't let
it bother you. And I was like, well, I was
a rat. It was a mall cop. That was enough
that I.

Speaker 3 (01:12:47):
Was scared straight, you know, And I was like, okay,
I'm going to be a good driver. Tap shoes in
the bag and there's probably two two's back there too.
I don't know my mom, that's how she operated and
would just throw the stuff in the car and yeah, anyway.

Speaker 8 (01:13:06):
You know, really missed an opportunity with the dance.

Speaker 2 (01:13:09):
I did. I guess I did.

Speaker 9 (01:13:11):
Yeah, your mom was onto something. Okay, So we've got
some like it hot going through Sunday. Tickets are still available.
That's a first in center for the arts. We also
have the Greek Festival going on this weekend, which is
eighty nine years they've.

Greek Orthodox Church, which is that beautiful church over by
North Central High.

School on Oh yes, okay, yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:13:38):
Yeah, they do this every year and it's Greek food,
it's Greek culture, music, dancing, all the things. Sometimes I
just like to get the food to go when I
take it home, and it's a delight. But you could
stay and hang out and immerse yourself in Greek culture.

Speaker 2 (01:13:52):
Is that starting today? Then?

Speaker 10 (01:13:54):
Is that?

Speaker 9 (01:13:54):

Okay, I know they will have buck Club that is.

Speaker 8 (01:14:04):
So good.

Speaker 9 (01:14:05):
And they also the Orso pasta that they make. I
try to mimic it, and I cannot make it taste
as good as so. Whatever they do to that orzo,
it's a secret. It's a secret, and I want to
know because I cannot replicate it in my kitchen. But
that's probably a me problem for sure. But yeah, go
check it out. You can do some dancing. We also

(01:14:28):
have the Spokane Jazz Orchestra kicking off their season. They've
been performing for forty nine years and they'll be at
the Myrtle Woltson Performing Arts Center at Gonzaga University's campus.

Speaker 8 (01:14:40):
They are fun to watch.

Speaker 9 (01:14:41):
I don't know if you've ever seen one of their concerts,
but they are fantastic and they're all volunteers. I think
they all, you know, just come together and jam and
it's fantastic.

Speaker 8 (01:14:51):
And they'll have tomorrow.

Speaker 9 (01:14:54):
They are doing the swing of Oscar Peterson with pianist
Brent Edstrom, who.

Speaker 2 (01:14:59):
Is He's very good.

Speaker 8 (01:15:00):
He's very cool.

Speaker 2 (01:15:00):
Oh yeah, he is. Yeah, I bet he is, and
I couldn't speak. I have been in the Martin Wolfson
a couple of times. That's a beautiful little venue on
the campus. I love that they didn't have that one
you went. They didn't have a lot of back in
the day.

Speaker 9 (01:15:20):
I feel like I went to gun Zagaport before it
was cool, and I think that gives me some street credit.

Speaker 2 (01:15:25):
Oh yeah, you may cool.

Speaker 8 (01:15:28):
It was all me.

Speaker 9 (01:15:31):
And then we have Old Dominion. They're playing at Northern
Quest tomorrow.

Speaker 8 (01:15:35):
Yes, that should be a great con.

Speaker 2 (01:15:36):
That's a big one.

Speaker 3 (01:15:37):
I have some friends going to that, and that was
one like when the schedule came out, of all the concerts,
they were locked in on that.

Speaker 2 (01:15:43):
They were very excited for that. So it should be
a perfect night tomorrow. Oh beautiful.

Speaker 8 (01:15:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:15:50):
So we've got those big things going on. And then
up at green Bluff, their big Fall Festival is kicking
off this weekend as well. It runs through the end
of October, so you've got to time. But this is
green Bluff's moment to shine. Yeah, this is when they
really shine.

Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
Heard several several people mentioned that that's their weekend thing.

Speaker 8 (01:16:10):
It is.

Speaker 9 (01:16:11):
Yeah, there's lots of stuff going on. And then across
the street over at Brick West they're doing their big
pumpkin fest.

Speaker 2 (01:16:17):
I saw the big truck out there.

Speaker 9 (01:16:20):
They deliver all those pumpkins and then it's just a
whole thing. So you don't have to drive to go
get your pumpkin.

Speaker 3 (01:16:26):
No, I walk over for I go leave for home.
Love that, so across the street.

Speaker 8 (01:16:31):
Here's my pro tip. Oh and Brick West might get mad.

Speaker 9 (01:16:34):
But if you wait until the very end of October,
they always have leftover pumpkins and they're pretty much like,
just please take them.

Speaker 3 (01:16:42):
Oh oh yeah, well it looks like they've got i mean,
not hundreds, like thousands.

Speaker 2 (01:16:48):
I mean, it's it's crazy. Where are they getting all
these pumpkins?

Speaker 8 (01:16:52):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:16:53):
Yeah, where do they grow? The moses like, I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (01:16:58):
I think they have a pumpkin patches, but it's yeah,
you know, but but stores are.

Speaker 2 (01:17:02):
Selling I mean cream bluff obviously. The amount of pumpkins
that people use, an amazing amount of pumpkins. And then
November first, they're all scattered all over the streets.

Speaker 8 (01:17:13):
At the end of at the bottom of you yes.

Speaker 2 (01:17:16):
But Dave, we do have a year round. I know
you only think it's November. We have pumpkin pie only
exists in October. It's only Thanksgiving.

Speaker 9 (01:17:27):
Yeah, so fun fact, I think pumpkin pie is gross.

Speaker 2 (01:17:33):
I'm not. I'm not against you on that. I don't.
I think it's overrated. That's my thing.

Speaker 3 (01:17:38):
I mean, I'm good for a slice of pumpkin pie
one a year and if I miss it, it's not
the worst thing.

Speaker 2 (01:17:45):
I'm kind of a once a year guy. But every
time I have pumpkin pie, say why don't I have
this every day? Yeah? I believe it's a good food.
Although I usually have a side of pumpkin pie with
my whip. That's why I was gonna say, always whip.
That is so mad.

Speaker 8 (01:18:05):
Yeah, I love it. Yeah, I'm not a pumpkin pie person.

Speaker 9 (01:18:11):
We also have the Just Between Friends sale going on
at the fairground site. That's always a big deal. The
Velocity you're playing downtown. Yeah, there's lots going on. It's
going to be busy and the weather is going to be beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:18:26):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (01:18:26):
Tomorrow is a free State park day, so you can
go and park for free. You don't need your Discover pass,
so you can go Mount Spokane or Riverside State park
and that's how.

Speaker 2 (01:18:37):
They get you. They hook you, I know, they get you,
go for the free one and then yeah, I know
on a beautiful weekend. Yeah, and go wrong with that.
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:18:46):
That's how my son ended up in karate. They his
karate dojo does a thing every year through Spokane public
schools where they're like, you know, one month free if
you do this, and so we did it and then
he was Now.

Speaker 2 (01:19:01):
That's the way they hit they still do.

Speaker 3 (01:19:04):
This is off topic, but do they still do the
like for fourth graders it's free skiing?

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
Is that a thing? Deal with that that? I remember that?
And uh my youngest got hooked on ski and you know,
and then they do the rating silverwood thing and all that. Man,
the kids and kids can cash in. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:19:28):
Nice, No, they don't think they do that. That doesn't
sound familiar to me.

Speaker 3 (01:19:32):
Sam Adams has joined us now, and he's he's already
heard all this, right.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Don't you you do the thing with him?

Speaker 6 (01:19:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:19:39):
We do, Yeah, we do.

Speaker 9 (01:19:41):
I pick out four main events because I don't have
as much time on the TV as I get to
have with you.

Speaker 3 (01:19:47):
I'm trying to untangle some chords here, sol Sam, what
have I done wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:19:52):
Here. My son calls that a rats nowt He always says, Dad,

Speaker 3 (01:19:58):
I do tangle go oh there you go there Everything

Speaker 8 (01:20:10):
So I'm excited about the new studio.

Speaker 3 (01:20:12):
Yeah, we're in fact, we were down there was that Wednesday.
I guess we had a meeting down there with all
the people that are making it all kind of come
together and it's.

Speaker 8 (01:20:24):
It's more intimate, yes, but it looks nice.

Speaker 2 (01:20:27):
Yeah. And it's very high tech yes, with video options
and all that kind of different cameras and cool stuff.

Speaker 8 (01:20:36):
Everybody will be able to see the rats nests.

Speaker 3 (01:20:38):
Yes, when they see me untangling chords, it'll say, oh,
that's what he's doing.

Speaker 2 (01:20:44):
How do your Christmas lights look? Uh?

Speaker 3 (01:20:47):
Well, when I first set him up, it's a lot
like this. So I have a lot of practice on
untangling things. And then and then every year when I
when I take down the Christmas lights, I always say,
I'm going to do a better job next year.

Speaker 2 (01:21:00):
When I hang them up, it's going to be and
it never is. It's always right.

Speaker 11 (01:21:05):
I need to teach you the it's called the over under.
There's an over under method. This isn't a gambling term.
Over under. There's an over under method if you could
use it for hoses, cable Christmas lights.

Speaker 2 (01:21:17):
Oh, for the wrapping, Yeah, for the courts. Yeah, there's
a way to do it. Yeah, the over under technique.
The over under technique.

Speaker 11 (01:21:25):
They teach it to you in broadcast college that they do.
I remember one time we were having a we were
having an emergency. We're trying to get to a live
shot in Denver, I believe, and one of one of
our interns was a student at the time during Gonzaga's
run in the NCAA tournament, and we were running because
we couldn't get a signal, and I'm like, everybody, break

(01:21:47):
down your gear. We're gonna go down two blocks. There's
a clear signal.

Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
Follow me.

Speaker 11 (01:21:52):
The photographers grabbing the tripod and folding it, folding it
and collapsing it. Interns grabbing a bag, and then I'm
running with the microphone and stuff and the camera. And
then we get to the new site and everybody's that
the camera's up, tripod is up. I've got the microphone,
and then the intern he just looks at me with

(01:22:12):
his face of defeat, and he looks at me and goes, Sam,
I have to tell you something.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
I'm like, what, he goes, I never learned the over
under the spot. No, I didn't have time. There's no
time like that. Like, just give me the rats nest.
We'll do it with the rats nest. That is hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:22:32):
Yeah, you know, we were learning from this from Kate.
But Kate was at Gonzaga before Gonzaga was famous.

Speaker 2 (01:22:40):
Yeah, early early nineties.

Speaker 3 (01:22:42):
Just before she came, she had never even been to
Spokane and gets enrolled at Gonzaga. So she shows up,
you know, for orientation until yous like the week before
or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:22:55):
So not only new new college, but new town Faith.

Speaker 8 (01:22:59):
I know what it really was.

Speaker 2 (01:23:01):
And it's only because her mom took the invite out
of the garbage I did.

Speaker 8 (01:23:07):
I was like, I've never heard of this. I do
not know what she said?

Speaker 2 (01:23:10):
What's Gonziga? And it was meant to be?

Speaker 3 (01:23:14):
It was, Yeah, And now she's an ambassador for for
our city telling everybody else about Gonzaga ground level up.

Speaker 2 (01:23:23):
That's the greatest and all about Spokane.

Speaker 9 (01:23:25):
Yep, I knew how to pronounce Spokane. I will give
myself that.

Speaker 3 (01:23:30):
When I remember leaving Texas, I've been here before. I
worked here then went to Texas for a couple of years,
and when I was coming back the you know, back then,
you had to tell the people that I'm giving my
two weeks notice, I'm you know, going to going back
to Spokane.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:47):
No, tell me about Spokane. What is that is it?
Is it right by Seattle? And is always those you know,
standard questions that we've all dealt with over the years,
Like people don't know that we are not only way
across the state, but we're way different. It's a totally
different thing. They always thought Spokane was like a suburb

(01:24:08):
of Seattle. So oh, it's like a spell View and
Kirkland and Spokane and they're all right in there over there.

Speaker 2 (01:24:16):
Yeah, yeah, we heard that common sure, well, and.

Speaker 9 (01:24:19):
That's where visit Spokane comes in. We're trying to build
awareness and get people to understand that we are not
a suburb of Seattle.

Speaker 2 (01:24:26):
No. Correct.

Speaker 7 (01:24:28):
We are.

Speaker 9 (01:24:28):
We are big, we are strong, we are we're the
second largest city in the state.

Speaker 2 (01:24:32):
Yes, we are. Take that Tacoma.

Speaker 3 (01:24:34):
Yeah, and they don't like that very much. And we
smell better than they do.

Speaker 11 (01:24:39):
Yeah, depend on what you like your town to smell
like right, but we don't have the tacoma aroma though.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
That's right, that's what That's what they're say. That's what
we've heard. What are you doing this weekend? Sam? You
know what? I think My wife and I are going
to go to a Greek fest this afternoon. We're about that.
It's just a tradition.

Speaker 11 (01:24:58):
We love it, really love the food, We love the atmosphere,
we love the line honestly and talking with people, hanging
out and join the music.

Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
Yeah, I love it. I'm a big fan. How many
times have you gone?

Speaker 11 (01:25:09):
Gosh, I mean this would probably be a good I'm
guessing six years.

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
In a row or something like that.

Speaker 11 (01:25:15):
Yes, yeah, okay, Yeah, And it was nice too because
before my son would be playing fall baseball and sometimes
that would be you know, over either North Central or
Rogers and wasn't too far away, so we would just
like in between games, we would just drive over there.
And yeah, it was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:25:34):
That's a thing.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
Yeah, And so just say thirty nine years, that's nine
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 8 (01:25:41):
Yeah, you've been doing this a while, and I.

Speaker 11 (01:25:44):
Feel like they kind of tweak it a little bit
every at a little bit every time, right, Yeah, I
think so.

Speaker 9 (01:25:49):
Yeah. The only thing that I don't think they do
the plate throwing. You know, there's that Greek restaurant in Portland.
I forget what it's called, but you can throw the
plate at the fireplace.

Speaker 2 (01:26:00):
I want one of those. It's like a plate. Wow?
Is that after dinner? You just say I'm dune.

Speaker 6 (01:26:10):
After watching?

Speaker 2 (01:26:12):
Yeah, I guess. Or if you don't like the food
just there garbage, Well, trust me, you'll love the food here.
It's really good. Yeah, that's cool. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:26:21):
And we used to have a reporter of Greek ascent
descent here working at KHQ, and so she was correcting
me on some of the pronunciations too. Oh yeah, yeah,
I just got to make sure you know, of course
it's a Euro, it's not a Gyro.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
But then there are.

Speaker 11 (01:26:39):
Other just just to clarify and and trust me, I
didn't know that before, but it was the other ones
like what what what are the there's like jazekee and.

Speaker 2 (01:26:51):
It helped me out here.

Speaker 11 (01:26:53):
Yeah, that deserts and she when I said bava and
she was like, it's not oh what is it? I
don't remember he said it different. It was like lava clava.

Speaker 9 (01:27:08):
However, it was Hispanic copeda. I don't think I'm pronouncing
it correctly, but it's kind.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
Of like when you're trying to pronounce your prescription and
then the doctor says that completely different. True.

Speaker 8 (01:27:25):
Maybe you can learn, well, I have to.

Speaker 11 (01:27:28):
I have to be careful about some of the things
I'm saying right now based upon the party experience.

Speaker 2 (01:27:33):
I had a couple of days ago that the celebration.
Oh yeah, thank you for coming. I had a great time.
He was, I know you were there at the beginning,
and yeah, yeah, but I'm a little gun shy now
of what which is one of your one of your listeners,
uh said, And I might be loosely quoting this, he said,

(01:27:57):
So are you.

Speaker 11 (01:27:59):
As don I'm really is as you sound on the radio?
What who was that reveal?

Speaker 2 (01:28:06):
My sorry goodness, but you said? He yes, that narrows
it down. All right, boy, that's not very nice. I
think it was. I think I'm not sure take him off.

Speaker 11 (01:28:22):
Plus, yeah, I think they meant it as like are
you acting? But still, I mean, I will tell you
I focus more on, you know, negative interactions with my
wife and not the positive.

Speaker 2 (01:28:36):
As far as life choice.

Speaker 11 (01:28:37):
I think we all do that right, because who cares
about the nice things you do that it's like, that's
not comedy. You want, you want the awkward moments. So
they actually said, are you really as dumb as you
said on the radio?

Speaker 2 (01:28:52):
Well, I'm I'm sorry that our listener. No, I took
it in the spirit as it was intended. I'm sure
it was.

Speaker 11 (01:28:59):
Were they drunk, No, oh no, it felt like it
was just a no filter kind of thing. Oh yeah, hey,
look live life, no filter.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
I like blunting this. But you still had a good time.
I had a great time. I don't.

Speaker 11 (01:29:11):
That's not the takeaway though. That is literally the first
thing I spoke about with my wife on the way out. Wow,
but we had a great time. No, we had a
fantastic time. What a crowd, got to got to meet
all your your faithful listeners and viewers.

Speaker 2 (01:29:23):
And yeah bombers. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:29:25):
I thought that was the perfect size room too, because
it was. It was busy, but it wasn't like you know, no,
we weren't overwhelmed. No, and there's too much chaos, And
it was really I think we left there probably about
eight fifteen, which is you know, perfect. Yeah, and it
was it had thinned out enough and I thought, well,
that's that's a good that's a good amount of time.

(01:29:47):
And you know, we didn't we didn't leave while people
were still we shut the place down. Well, yeah, yeah,
you can't leave your party.

Speaker 2 (01:29:56):
Yeah, you can't leave too early. And that's about I
left a little bit before that.

Speaker 11 (01:30:01):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (01:30:02):
And then eight fifteen is that when Cali showed up.

Speaker 3 (01:30:07):
I was telling him I think I told you, it's
like the deal was that Cli had some friends over
and so she, you know, on the spot, I just said, well,
we want you to come, you.

Speaker 2 (01:30:18):
Know, to the thing.

Speaker 3 (01:30:19):
She says, well, I'll be honest, I'm probably not coming,
And she said, wouldn't that be isn't that better than saying, oh,
I might be there knowing that No? Yeah, And so
then I thought I thought there was still a chance
I was holding out hope. So we started talking about
this on the air, and Molly gave me one hundred
to one odds for a dollar bet. So I'm risking

(01:30:41):
a dollar and then but I can win one hundred hey.
And then Sam heard about that and he jumped in
on that and he gave me a five dollar bet
with ten to one odds. Oh my gosh, So I
could have won one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:30:54):
No, I stillle you five dollars too. Oh, that's why
you brought it up.

Speaker 3 (01:30:58):
That's why you yeah money, Oh so I And there
was there was an agreement that there would be no cahoots,
like there wouldn't be like, hey, Clie, you know you
come here, I'll split the money with you or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:31:12):
But I did.

Speaker 3 (01:31:12):
I self reported, and I I sent her a text
in the afternoon and I just said, hey, you know,
no pressure, but just so you know, if you show up,
I get one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:31:23):
I know. And so the whole night everybody was asking,
you know, at the party, to saying, well, is she coming?
Is she coming? I said.

Speaker 3 (01:31:29):
I was like the Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin thing.
It's like, I believe it's going to happen. Everybody else
is mocking and taunting and heckling, and they they know
it's never going to happen. But I was still I
was still a believer.

Speaker 2 (01:31:42):
Meanwhile, Dave is waiting, yeah, waiting.

Speaker 3 (01:31:44):
So I lost six dollars, but I could have won
one hundred and fifty's.

Speaker 2 (01:31:50):
I'll still take those. Take those odds.

Speaker 11 (01:31:54):
I mean it was a fantastic party. Yeah, amazing press
other than the one person that and no, and that
was fun too, for real, that was funny too. What
was your favorite Do you have a favorite person that
you saw there?

Speaker 2 (01:32:06):
Well, I've gosh, so many honestly, Like I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:32:11):
If it's kind of like the Academy Awards if you
if you mentioned one person, if you think one person
or two or three, then you get in trouble for not.

Speaker 2 (01:32:20):
Mentioning them all the four five.

Speaker 11 (01:32:23):
But I really you know, now this isn't necessarily a listener,
but Pat Simmons and I, Oh, he's a great guy.

Speaker 2 (01:32:29):
Yeah, we just hit it off every time.

Speaker 11 (01:32:31):
We've done an event together and got into a show
of his and yeah I think the world of him.

Speaker 2 (01:32:36):
So yeah, great guy.

Speaker 3 (01:32:38):
He does does our music for us, I know Dave's
Cast Showdown song to Go ask Molly song really good?

Speaker 2 (01:32:43):
Wait a minute, that's why it sounded so familiar. Yeah, yeah,
lets him go. I asked him at the party, I said, Pat,
how many instruments do you play? He said seven? And
I said how many were self taught? And he goes
about four? So that I mean the dudes picking up
instruments and learning how to plan.

Speaker 11 (01:33:05):
I've never felt so inferior as to the time that
I hung out in co em seed an event with
Pat Simmons, because he's the auctioneer and I'm the MC
so my job is only to mc away be the
master of ceremonies.

Speaker 2 (01:33:21):
But he's he.

Speaker 11 (01:33:22):
Can play music, I guess now as I understand it's
seven instruments, and then he can he can be an auctioneer.
He's doing all these things, and I'm like, going, I
could just step out of here and he could literally
introduce himself.

Speaker 3 (01:33:38):

But no, you know you got to go, Like I
think there's some sort of like certification.

same school. It's in Montana. Yeah, it is a real
auctioneer school and you go there and.

art to that. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:36:21):
They let one through the stall and they walk them

room afterwards they realize they're lined up by white. Of course,
you work for more than I kid, Now, what's going
on here? If I have Don's on the all right.
That's one of my favorite comics ever.

Speaker 11 (01:37:09):

lining up for the and it says slaughterhouse. And then
there's there's a big clear line of cattle waiting to
go in, and then there's one cow that's about to join,

Speaker 3 (01:38:01):
Nice, It'll be a nap day for me and I'll
try to try to get back to good Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:38:06):
And I I told Dave I would come into the
show one day in a row. So I did. I
made it. You did it. What an impressive street. I
haven't had to come in this early for about a year.
And I told Dave immediately I was complaining about all
the red lights downtown. It was like, just immediately, like
this is an everyday thing for me.

Speaker 11 (01:38:25):
You really have to time it perfectly. Yeah, yeah, I
do the route enough where I know exactly, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:38:31):
Exactly, and you take the same same route everything, and
then you're probably ten minutes, eight eight eight minutes, you're
eight minutes from your house to the studio. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:38:41):
Wow, Yeah, I timed it right. And that's going to
speed limit?

Speaker 2 (01:38:46):
Oh is that? I thought that was from like your
helipad on top of your condom and you just floated
right over. They do. Yeah, they got to get Sam
Adams in the building.

Speaker 11 (01:38:56):
Him in, he's coming in now, fly him in like
Jefferson and fast times at Ridge one High.

Speaker 2 (01:39:01):
Yeah. Did you watch any of the Seahawk game last night? No?
I just saw the highlights this morning. Yeah, yeah, early
night to bed. Yeah, a walk off field goal, as
they say, Yeah I was. I told Dave, I said,
I'm set for overtime, we know, and then boom boom,
boom boom. And seriously with the comeback that Arizona came.

Speaker 11 (01:39:21):
They marched down the field and then wow, Seattle just
goes right back.

Speaker 2 (01:39:25):
It's some field goal position and wins the game. Well,
if you're going to do that, we'll do this. Yeah,
that was really good.

Speaker 11 (01:39:31):
And then there was a there was a side eye
moment I saw, ah, yes, we played that.

Speaker 2 (01:39:35):
Wow, that was kind of funny. I missed that live,
but yeah, I guess live the bad word got out.

Speaker 3 (01:39:43):
Oh my DVR records the game, but it only records
it from the NFL network, so it's after it was over,
so they had chances to sort of clean it up.
I wanted to ask you, though, if there was any
chatter about the Arizona Cardinal uniform.

Speaker 2 (01:40:00):
I didn't hear anything anything. Right the Desert whatever they
call it.

Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
It was because it's a rival game or something. The
NFL is doing these things where they're, you know, they're
having the home team on one of these games have
something different with their jerseys. So the Cardinals went with
with their you know, they're they're wearing their white jerseys.
But it's supposed to be a desert look, and to me,
it just looked like mud speckles all over their jersey.

Speaker 2 (01:40:26):
And it didn't. It didn't say desert to me.

Speaker 3 (01:40:29):
It just said like, why can't they clean up the MUDs?

Speaker 2 (01:40:35):
Little?

Speaker 3 (01:40:35):
And it's on it's on real grass, you know, it's Arizona.
They bring in real grass for them for the game.
But it just looked like mud. I didn't know if
I didn't have a take on that. I know that
Thursday used to be the color rush.

Speaker 2 (01:40:50):
Yeah, out the lime green, action green, that's what.

Speaker 3 (01:40:54):
They called it, Action green, Action green. I don't love them,
which I liked it, but I think the general consensus
was people didn't like the neon Yeah, it's too neon ish.

Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
All right, we got to play the Showdown? Hey yeah,
I played Sam earlier this week of the Showdown. Did
how'd that go?

Speaker 11 (01:41:18):
He had two field goals? I had a field goal
and a safety. Oh, wins by one.

Speaker 2 (01:41:23):
Wins by one? Clothes Look at this, Sam. I'm going
to pay you off right now, and Ken is the witness.
We'll see. Oh nice, just five dollars you have won
five dollars. That's well, thank you, sir, I'm only pay
my best.

Speaker 11 (01:41:39):
I'm only taking this because I know if I lost
fifty you would take it.

Speaker 2 (01:41:42):
Oh. I would have definitely take it, right, Okay, and
I did.

Speaker 3 (01:41:47):
Someone on the text line, Oh, Regina uh says it's
still cheating that I even though I self reported and
I told Cali, I said, if you show up, I
get one hundred and fifty dollars. I never said I'll
give you some of the money or anything like that.
I just said, if you happened, this is a very
big deal for me.

Speaker 2 (01:42:06):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:42:06):
But according to a couple of different textures that I
was in cahoots.

Speaker 11 (01:42:12):
Well, the fact that you use the word self report,
I think that's akin to like college football and college
athletics when something would happen with recruiting and something would
happen and they would self report, and typically what happens
is all right, this is a warning, don't do it again.

Speaker 2 (01:42:30):
So Dave for your self reporting, this is your warning,
don't do that again. Just a fair one. I'm guilty.
That's good for a self report. You have been chastised.

Speaker 3 (01:42:42):
Yeah, now, and we're starting fresh, starting fresh. Look at
it now, here's all the texts, the uniform. This is
from Bethany. The uniforms look like poop splatters, Natasha says,
the Cardinal jerseys look dirty.

Speaker 2 (01:42:55):
Okay, Yeah, I've always thought, I don't know, if you've
seen the Oregon Duck basketball court. Yes, way too busy
that that looks like somebody pooped all over the court.
I don't like. I don't like all the brown. Yeah,
I think there's just too much going on. Yeah, say,
I don't know, or leaves or something like. Yeah, a

(01:43:17):
little too busy.

Speaker 11 (01:43:18):
Yeah, so especially I used to live there, and before
that it was MacArthur Court and that thing was, you know,
very classic, the Mac.

Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
The Max way back in the day. Go good, Venerable Court.
All right, Sam, have a good weekend. Yeah you too.
Play the showdown. I think we have Meghan that was
going to play the showdown. So we'll get to that.

Speaker 3 (01:43:41):
Ken's got the question that mollis crafted. There's a five
dollar question in there. Yes, maybe off the air, I
will you can ask Sam if he knows the answer
to the five dollars question.

Speaker 2 (01:43:52):
Hey, just for you know, just for our own purpose
to see. Okay, so I can win.

Speaker 3 (01:43:57):
I just lost five dollars to Sam, But maybe I
can win it back through Malwy's question.

Speaker 2 (01:44:02):
Thank good. Yeah, there's always a deal on the board.
I like the deals. Oh yeah, I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:44:06):
Always looking for the deal. All right, we're back after
a break. That David Molly Show continues with Ken. The

Speaker 4 (01:47:09):

I don't think he really cared that I was listener
fifty eight. I don't think that meant anything to him.

Speaker 3 (01:47:19):
Well, at least you didn't say, you know, hey, do
you why are you normally this dumb mark?

Speaker 2 (01:47:26):
He just played dumb on the radio.

Speaker 4 (01:47:28):
I did tell him. I did tell him that listening
to he and Clyde on the air converted me to
watching Q six getting the app to listen to you guys,
I wasn't a Q six news watcher. And then you know,
of course we have anger at the other station for

(01:47:49):
what they did do, so we had to drop them
from our you know things. It's a good choice watch
and I'm totally converted to Q six. I love it.

movies out this weekend, The Strangers Chapter two, something called
Blue Moon which opened Wednesday, I.

Speaker 2 (01:59:37):
Believe, ah, okay, and then.

Speaker 3 (01:59:42):
The One Battle after Another, that's the big one with
Leonardo DiCaprio, Oh, Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn.

Speaker 2 (01:59:51):
Yeah, that would be a type of movie that I
was thinking.

Speaker 3 (01:59:56):
And then there's the new The Housemaid movie is coming out.
The book was fantastic okay. And Sydney Sweeney. Isn't that
a lot of chatter on that. I think that comes
out in.

Speaker 2 (02:00:08):
November, Red Hot, Sydney Swingey.

Speaker 3 (02:00:11):
And then there's new music out today. You'll be surprised
to hear some of these names.

Speaker 2 (02:00:15):
Okay. Mariah Carey has an album coming out today. Really.
This is her sixteenth album, Man Doja Cat Okay. Her
new album is called VI. This is her fifth album.
Fred Armison Fred Armisson from Saturday Night Live, Portlandia and

(02:00:36):
all that listen to this.

Speaker 3 (02:00:38):
The album is called one hundred sound Effects, and it
really is sound effects. It's one hundred and one different
recordings of various things, including wine glass breaking in sync
like in a sink. Oh oh, i'd see and tentative sawing.

Speaker 2 (02:01:00):
Silly like who's gonna wow? Sound effects? I mean we should,
we could, we could use that.

Speaker 3 (02:01:09):
I guess we could get that and just play some
of his sound effects. I mean, if those are two
of them, there's probably all kinds of weird stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:01:17):
Isn't he the one that always did the drum beat?
But am me whatever? That was.

Speaker 3 (02:01:25):
Saturday Live bit and then he of course was you
know an anchorman, he was he ran the club. Oh right,
Ron Burgundy took out the yes.

Speaker 2 (02:01:38):
Played for the people quite into it.

Speaker 3 (02:01:40):
So I don't know who who's going to buy that,
but it's interesting. Fred Armison's one hundred sound effects, and
then the great Colby Cala. Her new album drops today,
as they say, this is her eighth album, and it's
called This Time Around all right, good have Cold be back.

(02:02:01):
She's back back in a very big way, as they say, nice,
and then we are going to oh you know what
else is happening? You know, Molly's going to the Brady
Bunch House. Did she tell you about?

Speaker 2 (02:02:13):
And I saw her post on that that is really
and she's got her Rezies all in there.

Speaker 3 (02:02:19):
That and it's a huge thing. Like we're just now
getting the national story on this. It's completely sold out.
She got in at just the right time, so she
has her you know block of time I think an
hour a half hour something in November in the house.
But it's it's North Hollywood, November seventh, eighth, and ninth.

(02:02:41):
She is going the eighth, I believe that's the Saturday.
The bookings are sold out and they're even taking now.

Speaker 2 (02:02:48):
A wait list.

Speaker 3 (02:02:50):
Whoa and there there may be additional dates that because
this was a huge hit, like people went crazy for it.

Speaker 2 (02:02:58):
Obviously Molly's a big super fans. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:03:02):
So anyway, that's that's what people are. That's quite the
chatter right now. I like that, bring the old school back.
And then if you missed it last night, Oscar and
Meredith from the Office remember them, Oh yeah, they won
a million dollars on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire
for their charities.

Speaker 2 (02:03:23):
Yeah, that's a celebrity version.

Speaker 3 (02:03:27):
They used Kevin Brian Baumgardner for their phone of friends.
It was kind of a whole office kind of a theme. Right,
So here's the million dollar question. The word planet comes
from the ancient Greek word that literally means powerful, immortal,

(02:03:49):
stranger or wanderer, the word planet One of those four
they got it right and they won the million.

Speaker 2 (02:04:00):
Dollars Stranger, wonder wonderful the first two powerful, immortal, stranger,
and Wanderer. I would probably choose immortal, but I you
wouldn't have got the million dollars. Wah, Wanderer. Wanderer. Yeah,

(02:04:23):
who had known that planetarium? Yeah? You try to fit
that together, huh Wanderer.

Speaker 3 (02:04:30):
So they will be splitting their winnings between two different charities,
Planned Parenthood and a Philadelphia based food bank cleverly called
phil Abundance.

Speaker 2 (02:04:43):
Hey, good for that. Yeah, like their little marketing department.
They're nice like something. Yeah, so good for the office kids.
And then you were saying that you're watching the Jason
Bateman show. It is called Black Rabbit. It's on Netflix
Limited Series. I believe, I think we're three or four in.

(02:05:04):
It is really good, Okay, really good. And Jason Bateman
he's he looks like a woodstock guy. It's like almost unrecognizable. Yeah,
and Jude Laws and it's really is it like a
does it have like a like an Ozark feel or
what what's the A little bit? It has got more

(02:05:26):
of I owe the mob money and they're gonna come
and then they try to work out this deal and
they've got this nightclub and just something bad happens in
every scene. Day. It's good, it's good. It does have
so I would say it has some dark humor, but

(02:05:46):
it's you know, and how its.

Speaker 3 (02:05:49):
Violent, how brutal is it? I mean, am I gonna
be okay watching it?

Speaker 2 (02:05:53):
Goud got his finger cut off? Yeah, and it's all
wrapped and then he talks about it. But do you
see the finger being cut off? I didn't. I don't.
I don't. There is there's probably some I've heard. It's
very good and it's good, is good and everything. It's
kind of got a dark, gritty field. But uh yeah,

(02:06:14):
it's the thing that's the thing that keeps me from
it is you know, football season. I hear you.

Speaker 3 (02:06:19):
So we've had so many events going on, and then
with football seasons, like if I'm not doing an event,
it's football, and then I don't have time to like
start a new series. But if I did, and if
it hangs around long enough, I'll probably watch it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:33):
Yeah, you can click away on that in so many episodes.
I will have to check that. It may be a
limited maybe eight or ten. But and you're into the
third or fourth. I think Trish might have watched number
five last night. I had to go to bed because
I had to get up early. Yeah, because you had
to be here. Well, and I was on an assignment watching

(02:06:54):
football last night. That's right, as a good guy should.

Speaker 3 (02:06:57):
That's what you're sureosed to do. Because I didn't get
to see it live. Yeah, recap on that, all right, we'll.

Speaker 2 (02:07:03):
Take a break.

Speaker 3 (02:07:05):
Ken Winter will be in. That's Molly's Ken, so we'll
check in with him. We have our Hot Topics segment
as well. Happy Friday everyone. The Dave and Molly Show
continues with Ken live from the Numerica Studios.

Speaker 2 (02:07:25):

We're back, and it's a I'm in a room full
of Ken's. There's Ken's everywhere. Ken's to the left of me,
Ken's to the right here, I am stuck in the
medal with Ken's.

Speaker 2 (02:07:43):
Good morning, Yeah, Molly'sken and Ken Ken? Wow? Yeah, firefighter
can retired Ken and Dave.

Speaker 1 (02:07:50):
You guys, we're talking about the old days I got
to start off with that. I clearly remember meeting Kendall
for the first time. You and I had known each other,
and I remember we were working at It was up
on the hill and it was the old krem FM yep.

(02:08:10):
And I remember you coming in Ken as an intern
from Eastern.

Speaker 2 (02:08:15):
And I remember I have a mullet. I mind of three, well,
I want to say eighty two. Yeah, And I.

Speaker 1 (02:08:27):
Remember I remember Bill Stairs took on as the program director,
and I remember because I'd been there for a little while,
and I was there during the weekday and Ken comes
in and Bill Stairs made him call one of the
other radio stations and say, why automation equipment has arrived

(02:08:49):
here at the bus station, how do we ship it
to you?

Speaker 2 (02:08:52):
Or something like that.

Speaker 1 (02:08:53):
I just remember thinking, wow, this Bill Stairs guy, because
he was kind of news like he's maniacally evil, I know.
And then I thought, this young dude, Ken is for anything.

Speaker 2 (02:09:05):
I remember watching him. He was just dialing this number.
Then he handed me the cradle, the old phone, and
I you know what, I was trained very well from
that because in college we used to do what you
called burn calls back at our little little campus station
and dorm rooms. Everybody had a phone and you would

(02:09:29):
do crank calls and there was no Star sixty nine.
It was just like you would have fun. So it
was the wild West back then. You would get away
with anything. Was trained to pretend to be somebody else
on the phone. I think that was my audition. I
think they'll said, okay, this kid, this kid's got chopped.

Speaker 3 (02:09:46):
Yeah, And there was a different set of rules back then.

Speaker 2 (02:09:50):
I mean they were just yeah. Boy.

Speaker 3 (02:09:52):
The stuff that they would do, you know, to other stations,
and the stuff that they would do to you.

Speaker 2 (02:10:00):
I remember I still have the somewhere there's the audio.
They threw a.

Speaker 3 (02:10:03):
Pack of firecrackers in the studio while I was on,
just to see how I would react.

Speaker 2 (02:10:09):
Like that was that was okay?

Speaker 1 (02:10:11):
I know, I remember because the station was like and
we're talking like this and here's led sound.

Speaker 2 (02:10:18):
Yeah, stuff like that. I remember you were reading like
something you had to commit to. It was like the.

Speaker 3 (02:10:22):
Exactly when to do it because I was locked in
for a few minutes.

Speaker 2 (02:10:26):
And you hear Dave's posito so coming up on Thursdays.

Speaker 3 (02:10:34):
And then I and then I realized that it was
I think I saw them out in the you know,
past the glass, and they were all, you know, laughing
and everything, and so I knew that, Okay, it's a
bit and then I said.

Speaker 2 (02:10:46):
And the smoke is filling the air. But it did
scare the crap out of it when it first happened.
It was a bunch of firecrackers. It was like it
was real fire crackers. Yeah. Yeah, it's a different time.
I don't think that solidy guy approved of that. You know,
it's a different times.

Speaker 1 (02:11:03):
Can you imagine doing that in today's corporate world? That
would be just you'd be gone.

Speaker 2 (02:11:08):
Yeah. I also remember the just the almost everybody smoked
like that was the hard thing. And the guys that
you know, I would follow a guy on the air
and he would be taking while he's talking on the air,
taking a big puff and then blowing smoke, and the
smoke is going right into the microphones like it's just

(02:11:28):
like as he's talking, it's just going in there. And
then I was the next guy on with that same microphone.
That's just that's how it is. You just you know,
way different now. Smoking in a building, I know.

Speaker 3 (02:11:43):
And the counter always had a cigarette burn marks, you know.

Speaker 2 (02:11:46):
And yeah, little carpet down the area.

Speaker 1 (02:11:52):
The old old school radio stories. They were just it
was just bizarre compared to nowadays. But here we are now. Yeah, yeah,
you guys. I know obviously you're retired, but uh, you
guys became what every I think radio person wanted long career,

(02:12:16):
the ability to command.

Speaker 2 (02:12:17):
Thousands of bands. And you know that I was a DJ.
I would go, Okay, now here's another song, and hey,
I'm going to say something I think is witty. Yeah,
didn't quite work. Well, yeah, it did flowid It just
kind of settled in.

Speaker 3 (02:12:36):
Do you remember the early days where back and I
think I started, I was an intern and then they
hired me.

Speaker 2 (02:12:41):
I was the first person that was an.

Speaker 3 (02:12:44):
Intern that they hired because they never against union purposes
or whatever, so they kind of changed the rules and
hired me.

Speaker 2 (02:12:51):
I was really really lucky.

Speaker 3 (02:12:53):
But kram Am was the was the station that you're
first and you're on the middle of the night and
you have like you've got to read a PSA public
service announcement and then you're going to do the weather
and that's all that you're really doing.

Speaker 2 (02:13:06):
And I would have tapes.

Speaker 3 (02:13:09):
My shift would be over like six hours, but really
only four minutes of me talking, and I would go
home and listen to that over and over again, like, oh,
I did the weather better on that one, you know
the way I said cloudy.

Speaker 2 (02:13:27):
Yes, yes, And then when I said here's Gloria Laura
Brannigan or whatever it was back in the day. We
also then when you got on KREM FM, that was
the big deal. That was a oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:13:45):
And then the AM was all a bunch of real
to real tapes that would play music, and it was all,
you know, somewhat computerized, so it would fire off different
the time, and then you'd get a warning in the
FM studio the tape had run out, right, and then
you had to run in there while you're playing a
song because you're you know, there is no.

Speaker 2 (02:14:04):
It was all computer yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (02:14:06):
Physically, and you only had two turntables, so one was
playing the other one you were getting ready to have place,
so set that was a you know, it was a
real job. You're on you know, you're doing something all
the time. But in addition to that, you had to
run over to the other studio, take the tape off,
rewind the tape all the way all right, yeah, then
take that one off.

Speaker 2 (02:14:25):
Put a new one on.

Speaker 3 (02:14:26):
And then you get it all cute up and that
was just part of your duties, you know.

Speaker 2 (02:14:30):
Back then.

Speaker 1 (02:14:31):
I go on a road trip now and if I'm
going through, it struck me. I was going heading east
and you go through the little town of Wallace, and
I remember back in the days.

Speaker 2 (02:14:40):
You're driving through and you're thinking, man, look at it.

Speaker 1 (02:14:43):
There's the radio tower and wow, there's somebody there that's
spinning records.

Speaker 2 (02:14:46):
Let's listen and Stu. That was the old days. Now
everything is just gone. There's no live person in the building.
There's you know, it's just a satellite from someone. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:14:57):
The way that industry has changed so much, but yet
how some things stay the same. That there's entertainment, there's
fun people that you know. That was one of the
things at the party somebody, uh, because I was there
with you guys. I was trying to record people for things,
and many people said, it's just great to hear them

(02:15:18):
in the morning because they talk about what's going on.
They're they're local, there are friends there, stuff like that,
and it's like, well, that's the way it always was
and always should be.

Speaker 2 (02:15:27):
Should shouldn't be? Why some sort of a connection?

Speaker 14 (02:15:31):
Yeah, Yeah, I like the uh you talk about how
there always had to be somebody physically there, like you know,
when you start out, you are always working in the
middle of the night.

Speaker 3 (02:15:44):
That's those shifts that you get when you're you know,
working your way up. Well, in the old crim building,
it was, you know, there would be one person that
was on both stations, so you were you're on the FM,
but you were also had to make sure the tapes
were on the A and running flip different shows and everything,
and then of course the TV station was going on.

(02:16:05):
And that's how I became friends with all the TV
people early, is because they would finish the evening of
the night news, like the eleven o'clock news, eleven thirty midnight,
they'd come wandering over and it's just like, okay, I
just hang out with the sports guy and the weather
person who was Todd Who's Todd Pickett, Todd Wick, I
remember that way, and he would always come in. And

(02:16:28):
then Shelley Monaghan, oh yeah, who actually worked here.

Speaker 2 (02:16:33):
I worked with her.

Speaker 1 (02:16:35):
My first real full time job was right after her
at night on kJ RB right Sunshine. Shelley then tended
to or she was on Yeah, she was on tended too.
And then I came in and did two am to
six am.

Speaker 2 (02:16:47):
Yep, I remember, and I was kept going for the
morning guys. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:16:50):
Yeah, and that's where they make you do stuff where hey,
we got to have X amount of minutes of news
per week. So yes, you DJ want to be guy.
I get to be a news guy two times an hour,
and you have to read news. I remember, I got
two things I want to say. I remember I got
the gig and I was I was nineteen, I think,

(02:17:12):
and I get there. It's like I'm a DJ. I'm
on kJ RB. This is legendary. Oh my gosh, Oh
I have to do news. I would just rip and
read and I would just butcher it. I just go
through in the in washing in Washington, d C. They
would the president. President said, you know, it was just
horrible because I.

Speaker 2 (02:17:30):
Was cold, nerving. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:17:32):
My first air check with the boss, which is where
you play back the audio of what you did. I
sit in front of the guy and he stops the
tape and he says, oh, can uh this is horrible.

Speaker 2 (02:17:48):
Oh such denial. I thought, yeah, you know, it's the
middle of the night, and he.

Speaker 1 (02:17:53):
Goes, this is horrible. This has to get better. Immediately,
Oh my gosh, you won't be able to continue doing this.

Speaker 2 (02:18:02):
Oh my god. So I that's where I learned how
to write, and I wrote out I came in hours
before and did that.

Speaker 1 (02:18:11):
The other one I remember because I was only nineteen,
I haven't increased my vocabulary by much. I remember reading
a story and instead of the word indict, which.

Speaker 2 (02:18:25):
Is spelled I N D I C T. Oh, no,
it was all indict.

Speaker 1 (02:18:30):
It was indict. The indictment came down to the indictment,
the indiction. I get done with that newscast and one
line is ringing on the request lines, Hey k J
rb hi, you know you.

Speaker 2 (02:18:42):
Want to think that I'm cool or anything? You know,
that's that's it was so ego driven from me. That
guy on the other end goes, it's indict you idiot. Click.
He might as well have just called me an idiot.
I was just Oh, I realized I haven't heard those stories.

Speaker 3 (02:19:05):
And that is brutal that, you know, a guy would
say to the program record that this is horrible. Yeah,
and yeah, I mean that's well. And I never had anybody.
It was it was always I always maybe got a
softer version, you know.

Speaker 2 (02:19:18):
And it wasn't mean.

Speaker 1 (02:19:20):
I think it went from oh, okay, so you can
do better and you can do something. It was at
the level of like, oh my god, who did I hire?
And there is no way this can happen anymore. And
I appreciated the brutal honesty because I came to work
like three hours early just to make sure.

Speaker 2 (02:19:40):
And the very true to his credit. The very next
you know, it was like a week later. I came in.

Speaker 1 (02:19:45):
It's like, Okay, here's the tape and here's what I've done.
And he listened to it and he stopped it. He goes, wow,
that that is amazing that you Yeah, so I got
the feedback back, but I, yeah, put the fear of
losing my my six hundred dollars a month job or
whatever I've been.

Speaker 3 (02:20:05):
I do remember we were talking about our old program director,
Bill Stairs, and I remember, you know, they would have
liner cards where you were. You know, they just basically
want you to read these things about station promotions and
that kind of thing. And I remember being in the
studio because I was always hanging out with all the
other guys. You know, it was like I just like

(02:20:25):
being there, right, and there was way more experienced people
that were on the air, of course, and so they're
I'm finishing my shift, they're getting started. And I remember
one of the guys calling Bill and saying, Hey, Bill,
what's what's the deal with this man? You've got liner
cards in it and says, read verbatim on the card.
I mean, I mean, come on, man, and and this
is on the speakerphone and I'm still in the studio,

(02:20:48):
and then Bill says, Oh, don't worry about that, man.
I just I had to put that. It's it's for
guys like Spasitos.

Speaker 2 (02:20:57):
So that was my your horrible moment.

Speaker 3 (02:21:00):
It was like it was and there was there was
three or four of us that were pretty pretty young,
and so they didn't want us going. Yeah, it was like,
you just just read this verbatim, do not you know,
try to add in your own funny personal stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:21:18):
But he actually said, oh, that's don't worry about that.

Speaker 3 (02:21:20):
Yeah, I had to put that in there, you know,
for guys like and the and the guy was, well,
he's he's here in the studio right now, and oh, well,
I'm sorry, but that's you know, that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (02:21:34):
He didn't he didn't try to sugarcoat it. It was right.
I remember going on. I think it was a two
to two to six, might have been a Saturday night,
and I was very prepared for my very first break
and I was so happy because you guys remember midnight movies. Yeah,
oh man, Saturday night. So it's like boom, I get

(02:21:56):
in there. It's two am, Saturday night, Sunday morning, and
I did the most perfect midnight movie thing. And then
the guy came in and said, that was pretty good.
But the only people that heard that are the people
on their way home from That should have been for

(02:22:17):
next week. Yeah, it was. It was like to the
midnight was to nailed? Oh I did, so, come on out.
Oh that was two hours ago.

Speaker 1 (02:22:29):
Sorry, when all you're doing is focusing on what you're
going to say, not the relevance of the door, does
this really fit?

Speaker 2 (02:22:37):
Yeah? Oh man.

Speaker 3 (02:22:39):
I remember in Texas days, you know, and I was,
you know, I left here to go work in Texas
and it was new news and sports basically.

Speaker 2 (02:22:48):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (02:22:48):
So I get down there and this is mid eighties
and the first time I'm reading a story about ross Paro,
and ross Paro was a was from Texas. So like Texas,
even people back in the mid eighties, knew of ross
Parout before you know, the rest of the country did,
just because he was, you know, a billionaire back then

(02:23:09):
or whatever. Well the story so I'm reading the story
and I'm saying, uh, it was it. He used to
be h ross Perot, you know, it's his name. I
was calling him h ross Paratt and I did it
multiple times, kind of like when you and I remember
getting you know, getting out of the live segment and
our old general manager, Ken Williams was his name. Super

(02:23:32):
nice guy. He he just came in and just said
that I was going by Dave Robbins back then. He said, Robins,
it's ross Parout Rosso. You don't know that, And I said, no,
I don't know that.

Speaker 2 (02:23:47):
You know the ross Paratt. It's like going to the
home depot. Yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 1 (02:23:55):
And instantly with one word, everybody knows you're not from around.

Speaker 13 (02:24:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:24:00):
Yeah, that was definitely the There's a lot of stuff
like that about Texas. That was they would know right
away if you were a Texan or your Yankees they
call you right.

Speaker 2 (02:24:14):
My dad always got a kick when there was like
a yelling kid on the news and you knew they
weren't from the area. I remember once whether reporter told
us it was going to be sixty five and inacrates that.
That's an idiot. I know, I know you would enjoy
that anacrates Yeah, acrates. Yeah, you know, and it's tough.

(02:24:39):
You know, you got all the Native American names. Pull up,
I'm Trea. If you're not from here.

Speaker 1 (02:24:44):
I remember my first wife when I married her in Spokane.
We're going over to Anacordus to visit my family and stuff,
and she goes, okay, let me get this one. Pull
you up. Who Makilteo?

Speaker 2 (02:24:58):
Yeah, no, it's muckelt. Yeah. There's some were funny names
over there. Yeah, ah, the old days.

Speaker 1 (02:25:07):
I I just found I have a bin full of
cassettes and stuff, but I kept it recordings of of
my time being on the radio. But I kept it
out in an outbuilding, and for the longest time I
brought it in. I thought, man, wonder if the weather
has been okay to it? I have a I found
an old cassette player and stuff and they're great.

Speaker 2 (02:25:32):
Yeah, yeah, it's so. It's uh, it's cringe what I thought.
How cool I thought I was.

Speaker 1 (02:25:40):
Now I listened to it and it's like, well, that's
a different era anyway, you'd never hear that on the
radio now.

Speaker 2 (02:25:45):
And that's what we did then. And in my head,
I was like, yeah, I'm on the rise. I'm a DJ.

Speaker 3 (02:25:54):
I've got boxes and boxes of cassette tapes and the
same situation there.

Speaker 2 (02:26:00):
They're just in the basement. They're all, you know, in
order and everything. Sure, but yeah, I mean just some
of it is like thirty.

Speaker 1 (02:26:06):
Years old, right, yeah, you wonder how much hold Yeah,
it's they still play and my stuff is literally from
the first part of the eighties.

Speaker 2 (02:26:16):
That's why when.

Speaker 15 (02:26:17):
Molly pulled out her VHS stuff of the acting, of
the acting, oh my god, it makes me nervous looking
at her, and you know, and she's young girl with
young and stuff ready to go.

Speaker 1 (02:26:31):
She's on on the beginning of her career, and to
see the acting is like, oh, you're bearing your soul
when you put your early earliest stuff out there.

Speaker 2 (02:26:42):
You should find tapes and bring something. I've got them somewhere. Yeah, yeah,
I know, I've got a box somewhere too.

Speaker 1 (02:26:49):
But it's weird to think that that's that's our history,
and you know, with the way you guys were kicked
out of of the OCHO.

Speaker 2 (02:26:57):
Is that what you're calling it? The ocho? Yeah, I've
heard you say it a couple of times, THEO. Yeah,
haven't you said THEO? I'm not the old building? Oh,
the old building? I thought I was hearing you say
the Yeah. I don't think so. I don't know. I
am mister archive. I'm going to go back and find okay, yeah,

(02:27:19):
the old place. Yeah yeah, where was I going? The
old old tapes?

Speaker 1 (02:27:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:27:26):
Oh oh.

Speaker 1 (02:27:27):
The fact that you guys got kicked out like that
with no you know here you get to keep the
old audio or anything like that.

Speaker 2 (02:27:33):
It's history, that's that's just gone.

Speaker 13 (02:27:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:27:35):
So to have those cassettes of of what I used
to do for a living.

Speaker 1 (02:27:39):
I raised a family barely of three kids on the
radio in Texas and California and Colorado. And a couple
of times I was like coming in and they go, hey, Ken,
we're having a meeting. Well you you come in before
the meeting. Oh okay, Oh, and then you sit down
and there's you can see upside down there's a check

(02:28:03):
an enfloyah. That happened a couple of times. It's like folder,
you know, hey, but here here's two weeks severn.

Speaker 3 (02:28:10):
So it's like, well, the Colorado thing, that was one
time where there was nothing either that it was just
everybody was gone. And I've told the story, but it
was the Friday before Christmas. It was December twenty second.
We worked all the way up until the Christmas break
and it was like shows over and it's like, oh,

(02:28:32):
the basically the station had gone back to its previous
owner because the owners that had it, you know, you know,
didn't pay the bills and they yeah, so it went
back and then when the new guy, you know, he
took over and just wiped everybody out.

Speaker 2 (02:28:48):
Had an AX.

Speaker 3 (02:28:49):
And I remember, like that was before like you know,
cell phones or anything like that. And I remember calling
our our consultant, and I was like panic. It's like, I,
you know, I don't have a job the Friday Christmas
and and he was and he was so he was
so great. He was like, don't don't panic, says I
I can get you work. I can find you it
maybe North Dakota or Mississippi, but I can find you work.

(02:29:12):
Right after the first of the year. And I said, well,
I don't want to go to Mississippi.

Speaker 2 (02:29:15):
And so I think I was. I was.

Speaker 3 (02:29:21):
I think I met with the North Dakota people like
January third, and then I was on the air the
next week and they front loaded me and it was
a great company.

Speaker 2 (02:29:31):
It was really took care of the Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:29:33):
So they they gave me like a big check to
move and to get started, and then you know, and
then I survived. And then it was like the whole time,
I was like, I don't want to be in North Dakota,
but they were so good.

Speaker 2 (02:29:45):
To me that I stayed. You know, I stayed a
couple couple of years in emergency situation to.

Speaker 3 (02:29:50):
Your family emergency, and there was no you know, yeah,
I didn't even save any money, but I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (02:29:55):
And my daughters like not even a year old. Oh
my gosh. So that happened sadly. And you know, two
marriages ago. Did you hear that, Molly? They you know,
they each had to endure the Hey honey, i'm home
early today. Yeah. That oh god, it's so awkward, so uncomfortable.

(02:30:18):
But now now I'm a fire man. You know. Somebody, yeah,
somebody on the text line said, how did you you know,
tell this story how you go from radio to being
a firefighter.

Speaker 1 (02:30:30):
You know, I couldn't remember the first time that spark
was every there. Well, I grew up as a kid.
I love Emergency with Johnny and Roy, but that was
inspiring as a kid. But I was ten eleven years old.
I remember there was an apartment fire at a place
when I was in radio in Fresno, and I went

(02:30:51):
down to Lookie Lou and watch and I was.

Speaker 2 (02:30:54):
Asking a guy question, why do you cut a hole
in the in the roof? Why while the fire's going on?
What's that? Why is that?

Speaker 1 (02:31:00):
And what he described was so amazing and scientific and stuff.
I thought, wow, that is so cool. It had always
been kind of a cool thing where I just thought
it was neat. Here's the story, Here's how I got
really motivated to become a firefighter. Spokan Valley Fire Department
to this day still offers free CPR classes once a
month at one of our training areas. And I kept

(02:31:24):
driving by the garbage dump taking stuff to the dump,
and they'd have a reader board.

Speaker 2 (02:31:27):
That said, hey, free CPR.

Speaker 1 (02:31:29):
It's you know, I need to do that because what
if I'm at a restaurant and I didn't take the
hour hour and a half to learn CPR and a
guy behind.

Speaker 2 (02:31:37):
Me goes down. I would feel horrible, So I finally
signed up. I go in.

Speaker 1 (02:31:42):
You know, I was in my forties at the time,
and I'm learning CPR and Okay, this is great, and
there's this guy that's teaching it. But some of the
crew from the nearby house came in there in uniform
and stuff, and already they're like, wow, look at those
guys coming in. They get paged out for a call.
It's like, oh wow, they're going to do something. They're
gonna save a life and stuff. They come back a

(02:32:02):
little bit later, not too long, and I swear to god,
they were twelve feet tall.

Speaker 2 (02:32:08):
Then I'm an adult male, you know, but these guys
were like football stars or something like that. They walk in.
I just go, wow, what what would that be like
to be able?

Speaker 1 (02:32:18):
That's your job to go out and help people and
do stuff, excitement and all that kind of stuff. And
that's right then and there that that inspired me to
start thinking about it, and I thought, well, I'll volunteer.
And then luckily the first wife, at the end of
being my first wife, I'm sharing this, God, that would
be so cool, and she actually said, hey, why wouldn't Why, well,

(02:32:41):
then try for it. Why wouldn't you? Well, I got kids,
I got family and stuff. You should do what makes
you happy. Well, now I know she was also thinking
about doing something that would make.

Speaker 2 (02:32:52):
Her go ahead and do that little trans time. But
I kept that after it, and I was inspired, and
I kept going and I just never looked back. It's amazing.
It was lucky. And what is the average age of
the guys come new firefighters coming in? I mean, my
kids young are older than them. Yeah, they're well, we've

(02:33:16):
that's not always true.

Speaker 1 (02:33:17):
They the mid twenties. We hired an eighteen year old
guy who is phenomenal. He's a medic now and he's
just he's sharp. But yeah, mid twenties, thirties. But there's
a couple of guys that are, you know, in their
forties that get get got hired. Can I talk about
the open house? Yeah while I'm here?

Speaker 2 (02:33:36):
Yes, okay, good.

Speaker 1 (02:33:37):
So I'm here as friend of David Ken, but I'm
also here as firefighter tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (02:33:43):
We do this every year.

Speaker 1 (02:33:44):
Spokane Valley Fire Department at Spokane Valley not the city.
City's great, but we are a totally different department.

Speaker 2 (02:33:51):
Every year.

Speaker 1 (02:33:52):
We offer up an open house where people get to
come see, touch stuff, get in a fire truck. It's
great for the kids experience. Yeah, live fire demonstration. A
group from Montana brings in a trailer that they have.
One room is full of you know, couch and chair
and stuff like that. The next room, this is on

(02:34:12):
a big semi truck. It's modified. They demonstrate the power
of sprinklers and one gets lit on fire and it
just burns without any water controlling automatic sprinklers. The next
then they light it up with the sprinklers and it's
just an amazing demonstration.

Speaker 2 (02:34:30):
You can feel the heat from it and stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:34:32):
But we have helicopters there that the search and rescue
kids can come up and play fireman with a hose
and square targets and stuff. We have hotar. This is
at our new tower. Those that might have been aware
of it and have come before, we have. We have
just constructed over the last year and a half or
so two years a new training tower.

Speaker 2 (02:34:53):
It's an amazing.

Speaker 1 (02:34:54):
Facility, but it's out always further, so it's out at
Trent and bark If you go along track, get off
at Barker and go south. It's really it's at Garland
and Barker and you'll see it there. That's where we
have our shop where the guys work on the fire.

Speaker 2 (02:35:12):
Is it just tomorrow or is it both tomorrow only? Wait,
tomorrow is Saturday.

Speaker 1 (02:35:16):
Yeah, that's one of the it's one of the downsides
of being a firefighter working a shift.

Speaker 2 (02:35:22):
You work one day and then you're.

Speaker 1 (02:35:23):
Off for two days. For us, city has a different schedule.
I always I have no idea what day of the
week it is. There have been times I wake up
in the morning if I haven't stayed with Molly that
I'll get up on a Saturday and tune in to
you guys and it's nothing but dead air. It's like, oh, no,
something's wrong. No, dummy, it's Saturday. Fay you do so

(02:35:44):
it's tomorrow ten to two, absolutely free. There's food, there's
all kinds of free things that are safety oriented. There's
an amazing amount of stuff there and you can find
out more if you go to Spokane Valley Fire on
any of the social media. But it's Spokane Valley Fire
Department ten to two free.

Speaker 2 (02:36:04):
Nights. Something that's kind of cool.

Speaker 1 (02:36:06):
I like being able to brag about for them one
hour ahead of time at nine am for special needs
kids and we scored them around and there's one to
one time with firefighters. It's designed to make sure that
they are not scared if we ever have to come
in if there's a fire in the house. And with
you know, sensory overload and stuff, we just don't have
the noise and stuff like that that we do from

(02:36:27):
ten to twos stuff And yours truly will be the.

Speaker 2 (02:36:31):
MC for it.

Speaker 1 (02:36:31):
So oh yeah, I get I go out there and
I have two MC events tomorrow. I'm doing that and
then Molly's Safety Net.

Speaker 2 (02:36:39):
Fustering flight, so yeah time and nighttime. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:36:42):
So so thank you, thank you for letting me plug
that because it's it's so cool and it's free, and
it's come for twenty minutes or come stay for three hours.
It's there's so much to see and I could read
off all the stuff, but it's it's a long list
and I don't want to be indicted later if.

Speaker 2 (02:36:57):
I get it wrong. Ye, Ken, this is horrible. Oh
that was John Sherman. I remember John. Yeah, there were
a lot of big radio people that came through this market. Yeah,
we were.

Speaker 1 (02:37:16):
Charlie Brown, who was later went on to be a
huge morning guy in Seattle, and Larry Lujack came through
Spokane w.

Speaker 2 (02:37:23):
LS old days of Chicago Times Chicago.

Speaker 1 (02:37:26):
Yeah, yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, I used to mean something
back in the day. I remember you'd buy tapes of
these guys.

Speaker 3 (02:37:35):
You know, it was a different they call it California
air Checks or what was the company California and you
would send you know, your money, you know, in a check,
and then you'd wait for the package to arrive with
the cassette and it would have all the Los Angeles jocks.

Speaker 2 (02:37:47):
On there or whoever. They'd hear what they're like, oh,
and then instantly try to steal. Yeah. I was like, oh,
I want to sound like that guy. Yeah, sixty four,
you know, the guys with the booming boys. Yeah, those
were the days. Those were ken. You were always wanting
to be in radio, right, I mean you went to

(02:38:08):
I Wastern to be in radio. And speaking of the
very first radio station that I ever heard, we did
not have a TV growing up in kelagg Ida. It's
just mountains. Oh yeah, Kate w A L Wallasidaho, That's what.
And I'm sure during the day it was all whatever,

(02:38:28):
but at night it was the top forty music. That's
where I I mean that it was just music, was it? Yeah,
and thinking there's a live DJ like you guys were
talking about that, Hey, will you play? Will you play
the song? But don't talk over it so I can
record it. Yeah, And I had one of those calls.
I remember my brother and this was way before I

(02:38:51):
mean I was probably in second grade, and I remember
my brother going over. He was playing a song on
the radio or on the stereo. He always said, why
does the radio guy always do this? And he turned
it up and then goes, we now have a winner.
Now he turned it down right in the middle of
the no more calls, we have a winner. Yeah, why

(02:39:15):
does he? Yeah? Just so it was as old school
as it could be. No more calls.

Speaker 3 (02:39:24):
And reel to reel tapes where you had to you know,
you would edit a phone call, you know, and but
you had to do it with a razor blade, and
you're cutting the tape and then taping, and you're trying
to do all that in you know, in between a
I saw a four minute song.

Speaker 2 (02:39:42):
Yeah, that's just you just did it.

Speaker 1 (02:39:44):
I every once in a while, because it's been a
long time ago, I've been firefighter for thirteen years, but
every once in a while a radio nightmare will pop
into my dreams.

Speaker 2 (02:39:55):
Well, I still do that.

Speaker 1 (02:39:56):
You know where the song is ending, and you can't
get another cassette tape or the card for the CD.

Speaker 2 (02:40:03):
You can't get it in there because it's become a
piggy bank. Oh no, and now you oh no, now
I have to talk.

Speaker 6 (02:40:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:40:11):
Oh god, the performance anxiety. Wait, why is that? It's
always the timer is running out? Yeah, yeah, something's not working.
I remember one guy I worked with talking about it.
It's only gonna be funny to me, but he was
talking about having a radio nightmare. It's like, oh yeah, yeah,
what was yours? He goes, well, I was talking and

(02:40:32):
my teeth, my jaw fell out. It's like, oh, that's
not even a radio nightmare. That's that's like a horror movie.
My teeth fell out on the turntable. That's a good
laughter right there. Time.

Speaker 1 (02:40:54):
I hope if it wasn't too boring, because I love
joy those stories.

Speaker 2 (02:41:02):
And then we got many more too. I remember we
were talking about, you know, old program directors calling other
radio stations and taking them off the air.

Speaker 1 (02:41:10):
I mean, there was a team of people that we
were a part of. It was other practical jokes. Yes,
when you knew how to get to somebody really good. Yeah,
bought the engineer up. I'm up on the mountain.

Speaker 3 (02:41:23):
I need you to pot the song down and then
count to four and turn it back up. Okay, okay,
whatever you say, and then we would record that and
we would.

Speaker 2 (02:41:38):
Dirty tricks. You guys are ready for hot topics. We
should do Hot Topics brought to you by Clark's Tire
and Automotive Center.

Speaker 3 (02:41:49):
Look, you could have done that line Hot Topics. You
actually got to meet Lady Newton John Is that right?

and did an interview because he was doing a fundraiser thing.
I got to have him on the air. I got

N seventeen I think was, you know, kind of a
softer wave of presenting. This is not so before that.
The same content that was X is now NC seventeen.

Speaker 1 (02:48:43):
Yes, so whatever, that just seems like, wow, we skipped
a section, you know, she's been something else because seventeen
X X.

Speaker 2 (02:48:53):
Wow, are there any NC seventeen does that even A?

Speaker 1 (02:48:57):
I don't know if that happens anymore. I think they've
kind of gun, we're going to hell in a hand basket.

Speaker 2 (02:49:02):
That's nobody needs it. In seventeen. Yeah, it's it's rated.
Do we have R something? Yeah? Yeah? Are so R
is worse than X because if X was was there
no R back then or no? No they had all
it was it was it was g PGG general Yeah,

(02:49:24):
then R then X, and so now X is R. No,
X is nothing. X is nothing. The equivalent X is
in C seventeen basically bay but if X is inc
now we're doing math X is in C seventeen, R
is worse than in C seventeen.

Speaker 3 (02:49:42):
No no R no no, no, R is R is restricted.
So and a seventeen year old can go, but they
have to have their parents' permission. In C seventeen is
absolutely no one.
